This episode of Veteran On the Move features Patrick Nelson, Army Veteran and founder of Loyalty Point Leadership. Patrick’s story is one of resilience and purpose. He enlisted in the National Guard while still in high school and transitioned to regular Army after 9/11. Deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq, where he was wounded in combat, significantly impacted his life. Planning ahead, Patrick began taking college courses while still deployed, ensuring a smoother transition to civilian life. He became the inaugural NFL-Pat Tillman Military Scholar and achieved his dream job working in football operations with the Minnesota Vikings. Following a successful stint with a leadership consulting firm, Patrick found himself navigating the challenges of the 2020 pandemic. This led him to pursue his entrepreneurial journey and launch Loyalty Point Leadership. This episode delves into Patrick’s journey from military service to becoming a coach and public speaker. He shares how this newfound purpose helped him cope with the loss of his military identity and thrive in the civilian world.
