REL Veterans —

The Pursuit of Goodness

THE PURSUIT OF GOODNESS IN SERVICE

Helping veterans find connection, rediscover purpose, and continue making a difference long after their military service has ended.

REL Veterans is a free initiative created by Ridiculously Enjoy Life to support U.S. veterans through something simple but powerful:

People helping people.

You served.

You sacrificed.

You contributed.

And your story doesn't end when your service does.

WHY REL VETERANS?

MORE THAN "THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE."

Those words matter.

But sometimes a veteran needs something more.

Someone to talk to.

Someone who listens.

Someone who asks, "What's next?"

Someone who believes there is still something meaningful ahead.

REL Veterans isn't here to replace the VA, provide medical care, or tell veterans how to live their lives.

It's simply a place for connection, encouragement, accountability, personal growth, and discovering new ways to contribute.

Because your military service may have ended.

But your ability to make a difference hasn't.

A PERSONAL REASON

This is personal for me.

My mom served 23 years in the United States Army and retired as an Army veteran.

Watching the strength, discipline, courage, and selflessness that came from her years of service shaped a big part of who I am.

So creating something through REL that gives back to veterans isn't something I feel obligated to do.

It's something I would be honored to do.

And I want to do it for free.

Because REL is the pursuit of goodness.

THE THREE THINGS WE'RE HERE TO DO

CONNECT

You don't have to navigate your next chapter alone.

Military service creates a unique bond, but life after service can sometimes feel very different.

REL Veterans is about creating genuine human connection.

A conversation.

A new friendship.

An accountability partner.

A walk.

A cup of coffee.

Someone who simply listens.

No judgment.

No pressure.

Just connection.

GROW

Your story didn't end when your service ended.

Maybe you're figuring out what comes next.

Maybe you're starting a business.

Changing careers.

Rediscovering an old passion.

Working toward a personal goal.

Or maybe you simply know you want something more from this next chapter.

REL is about helping you look forward.

Not telling you what your next chapter should be.

Helping you discover it for yourself.

Because sometimes the most important question isn't:

"What did you do?"

It's:

"What's next for you?"

CONTRIBUTE

You still have something to give.

Your experience matters.

Your skills matter.

Your perspective matters.

Your story matters.

And the qualities that helped you serve your country — discipline, leadership, resilience, teamwork, courage, responsibility and service — don't disappear when you take off the uniform.

They come with you.

REL Veterans is about finding new ways to put those qualities to work.

Helping someone else.

Mentoring.

Volunteering.

Creating.

Building.

Leading.

Listening.

Serving your community.

Sometimes finding your own purpose begins by helping someone else find theirs.

YOU STILL HAVE SOMETHING TO GIVE

Maybe your greatest contribution isn't behind you.

Maybe it's still ahead.

Different chapter.

Different mission.

Different uniform.

Same ability to make a difference.

A PLACE FOR EVERY VETERAN

REL Veterans is for the veteran who served two years and the veteran who served twenty-two.

For those who recently transitioned.

For those who retired decades ago.

For men and women.

For veterans of every background, branch, generation, and experience.

You don't have to have everything figured out.

You don't have to be struggling.

And you don't have to know exactly what you're looking for.

You simply have to be willing to connect.

MY PROMISE

I don't know where this initiative will ultimately go.

And honestly, I don't need to know yet.

I'm starting with one simple belief:

If I can help one veteran feel more connected, discover a little more purpose, accomplish something they've been putting off, or realize they still have something valuable to give...

then it's worth doing.

And if that one person helps another person...

the goodness keeps moving.

LET'S CONNECT

If you're a veteran and something on this page speaks to you, I'd love to hear from you.

You can reach out simply to talk.

You can tell me what you're working toward.

You can tell me what you're trying to figure out.

You can ask for accountability.

You can share an idea.

Or you can simply say hello.

There is no cost.

There is no obligation.

And there is no sales pitch.

Just a human connection

A FINAL THOUGHT

You served your country.

Now let's find ways to serve your life.

CONNECT.

GROW.

CONTRIBUTE.

Because the world is better with you in it.

REL is the pursuit of goodness.

Thank you for your service
