Idaho Outdoor Fieldhouse Director and Army Veteran
In this episode of the Mission43 podcast, host Dan McGurkin speaks with Andy Johnson, the new Director of the Idaho Outdoor Fieldhouse, about finding purpose after military service. The Fieldhouse is a central space fostering connection and personal development for veterans, military spouses, and adaptive athletes (through the Challenged Athletes Foundation). Both Dan and Andy reflect on their transitions from military careers to civilian life, sharing the challenges, growth, and importance of community, family, and a life of continued service. Listen as they explore how Mission43 and the Fieldhouse provide veterans and military spouses with meaningful ways to reconnect, grow, and continue serving in new capacities.
