    Rob Martinez, founder of All Clear Gear, shares his powerful journey from Marine Corps veteran to entrepreneur creating solutions for transitioning service members by cleaning their gear to military standards.

    • Left the Marine Corps in 2017 after not being selected for MARSOC despite passing assessment
    • Struggled with purpose during his first 18 months as a civilian, working multiple jobs without satisfaction
    • Experienced losing many fellow veterans to suicide during this difficult transition period
    • Received a vision during prayer about cleaning military gear for transitioning service members
    • Founded All Clear Gear to solve the problem of gear rejection at turn-in facilities, which occurs roughly 75% of the time
    • Started by driving hours to clean single packs and evolved into a growing business with clear processes
    • Plans to expand to military installations nationwide to help service members focus on their transitions
    • Values integrity, positive attitude, and genuine care for both customers and team members
    • Recommends building businesses around the "three P's": pain point, pleasure, and purpose
    • Believes in remaining authentic and using social media to provide solutions rather than just build influence
