Episode Details

On this episode of Tracer Rounds, Terri sits down with Edwardo “Javi” Guitron, a 22‑year U.S. Army veteran whose career spans the 82nd Airborne Division, Special Forces, and advisory missions across Iraq, Afghanistan, Colombia, and Israel. With deep experience in operational security, crisis response, and threat management, Javi now brings those skills into the civilian world as a security consultant, mentor, and dedicated father. Together, Terri and Javi break down threat detection from a parent’s perspective — how veterans translate battlefield instincts into everyday family safety, what to look for in uncertain situations, and how to stay prepared without living in fear. Javi’s insights blend real‑world expertise with the grounded wisdom of a parent who has spent a lifetime protecting others. This conversation is packed with practical tips, mindset shifts, and the kind of lived experience that helps families stay safer and more confident in a complicated world.
