The Normal 40 aims to help people start over

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

What does it mean to take the leap, leave your job and redefine your career? Lon Stroschein joins In the Moment to talk about what he calls "The Trade" and why he founded the Normal 40.

We hear how his relationship with U.S. Army General Stan McChrystal has influenced his work and how a public radio interview led Stroschein to rewrite his second-half story.
