Hasard Lee's remarkable career includes flying both F-16 and F-35 fighter jets, being awarded the title of 'Top Instructor Pilot of the Year' for the largest F-16 Combat Wing in the Air Force, and 82 combat missions. Hasard holds the unique honor of being the only fighter pilot to have flown two different types of jets in combat on the same day.

Beyond the sonic booms and jet streams, Hasard has also carved out a space for himself in the digital world. As the creative force behind one of the largest defense channels on YouTube, he has captured the attention of more than 79 million viewers and touched over 290 million lives across social media platforms.

Hasard's debut book, "The Art of Clear Thinking", was just published by St. Martin's Press. We discuss how the intense, pressure-cooker environment of air combat has shaped his approach to decision-making, mental toughness, and debriefing, and how these lessons can help us all navigate our lives more effectively.
