Don't drown in the sea of transition; grab the VET S.O.S. lifeline.

VET S.O.S. is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, established March 12, 2025, dedicated to empowering the veteran community and their families as they navigate the transition from military service to civilian life. VET S.O.S. is built on the conviction that no veteran or military family member should face the challenges of transition alone.

With a mission rooted in education, connection, and support, VET S.O.S. delivers its message through a growing multi-show podcast network with an evergreen archive of 445+ episodes – one of the most comprehensive collections of veteran transition content available anywhere. The network is distributed on Wreaths Across America Radio (Thursdays, 4 PM ET), YouTube, Spotify, and all major podcast platforms, and is supported by an active newsletter and social media presence reaching veterans and military families nationwide.

At the heart of everything VET S.O.S. does is storytelling – amplifying the voices of veterans, spouses, and military families to educate, inspire, and connect those walking a similar path. The organization’s invitation to the veteran community is clear: “Don’t Drown in the Sea of Transition – Grab the VET S.O.S. Lifeline.”

“I want to thank Shawn for hosting Cedars-Sinai as a Veteran friendly employer during a 2-part episode. The VET S.O.S. Podcast is providing incredible information to transitioning service members everywhere and is connecting with valuable partners in the community which is essential for networking. Shawn is making an incredible difference every day in his mission to help our nation’s Veterans so that they have resources, employers and community partners at their fingertips to ease the transition process and set themselves up for success. Keep up the great work. I am proud to know you and proud to support your mission.”
