In this video I discuss the number one most underrated reason to join the airforce. Getting away from my hometown and the people I dealt with daily, was by far the best thing I could've done. A lot of people will tell you you're crazy when discussing big dreams like joining the Airforce, but they're really just holding you back.

I’m currently 29 and debating on joining. I have no kids or criminal record I am in the process of speaking to my recruiter now. I pray GOD just leads me to what’s best for me. I pray if I join GOD will be with me if I join. I’m leaving towards joining. Stay bless

I joined the Airforce last year, and I'm graduating from tech school tomorrow. After BMT (which honestly isn't that bad), the Airforce is the best career you could ask for. The life style is amazing

@phillipwayne7516 4 месяца назад

I'm 39 years old, and I'm in a different cave. I'm in a career I don't enjoy, but have felt trapped because my trade is enough to provide for my family, but I feel like the world is passing me by. But I decided I don't need to feel trapped. I started watching your videos and saw a recruiter. I went from a couch potato at 199 lbs to 170 lbs and now running 1.5 miles in 15 minutes. I have had 3 medical diagnoses that I am going through the process of getting waivers for. If you have been thinking about joining the military and haven't, the only thing holding you back is you. Hopefully the next time I comment on one of your videos will be when I am about to go to MEPS. Love your content, it is so informative and motivating.

@BeLynn89 4 месяца назад

Nice! Good Luck. 34 here and after some medical hiccups I passed MEPS. Enlisted and ship out to boot camp on the 30th of this month. Keep going! What you said is so true...only thing holding people back is themselves. You got this!

@yingyang7448 4 месяца назад

Hey Phillip. I'm also in the process of joining the Air Force for active duty. My recruiter told me that with all the waiver stuff his boss has to look over, I might not even be given a choice of what job I want and I may even be permanently disqualified altogether. Is it the same for you? I actually turned in my enlistment packet online in late November and am still waiting for my recruiter's boss to look over my papers. 1/16/2024.

@abelmore7 4 месяца назад

Okay so im not the only one…im 35 don’t have a lot going for me right now and the job I have is just getting me by. No real marketable skills. What field are you guys considering of going into?

@yingyang7448 4 месяца назад

@@abelmore7 If my recruiter will give me a choice, I want to go into the Space Force and become a Space Systems Operator. If not that, I want to do cybersecurity for the Air force and then transfer over to do Space Systems Operations for the Space Force after a few years. 1/18/2024.

@BeLynn89 4 месяца назад

@abelmore7 Going into security forces because of my civilian career, it will help me best. But remember, after 2 years, you can look into other careers after you get in and see what more/all there is to offer. Best of luck to you!

I retired from the Air Force after 22 years active duty and I want to say that you speak more truth on this channel than I've heard in veteran's groups. I taught AFJROTC after getting out for a while and those kids had no idea the world that's out there whether they join the AF or not. Keep doing what you're doing. For some (Me) it was the best move I could have made. Now life after getting out? That's another story.

Hey! Just wanted to drop a thanks for all your vids so far. I'm 27, highschool dropout with a GED, only had two jobs, and was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid, but stopped taking meds when I was in 8th grade and learned to control myself. I've had a lot of fear concerning whether or not I'll be let in, but your content has helped me reign it in. I'm still training and doing PT to not be a twig, but plan to take the leap no more than a few months from now.

@Jodywithawhy Месяц назад

I’m wishing you good luck. I would recommend you see your doctor so you can have something in your medical records stating you’ve been off of meds since 8th grade, and have performed well. Also that doctor doesn’t see any need for you to continue medication in the future. This will help your medical waiver when it comes time.

@zalidaris Месяц назад

I appreciate it! Only problem with that is that i haven't seen any doctor, let alone that one, in well over a decade, so I definitely have a long blank area there. But I'll actively start looking for one.

You’re so right. This is similar to what I’ve got going on in my life. One day dragging the tweed I thought to myself that there’s no way that this is what life sums up to or what I’m meant to be. Immediately I stopped hanging with friends who didn’t serve a better version of me, cut out the drugs and partying, and currently in the process of enlisting into the army and getting a medical waiver for mental health. I’m working on getting a physically fit (156 lbs, 19.5% BF, down from ~180 and 23%+ BF) and becoming the person I truly want to be. The example of the cave is such a great way to paint the picture for how small I thought life was, compared to how big and vast the world really is. For anyone out there on the fence or even willing to listen, take what Jody says and challenge yourself to look past the “reality” you currently reside in. There’s more, don’t sell yourself short.

MSgt Jody is correct---best thing I ever did was join the AF in 1982 and get away from home....enjoyed a 21 year AD career and a 17 year civil service career before retiring in 2021. My worldview was greatly changed due to all the people I met and cultures where I lived....the world is much bigger than the town where you grew up. The AF culture and experience provides an education that cannot be found at any college or university.

I live in the middle of nowhere in a town with only 1000 people. I want to get out and be challenged, have my world views tested, and grow as a person. This video was honestly so encouraging to me because I've been debating enlisting as an active duty airman for about 5 months now. I'm no longer scared that the airforce "isn't for me" because I would rather enlist and KNOW if it is or is not, than to be wondering for the rest of my life and wandering aimlessly.

Jody is great. Another great channel to watch is Air Man Vision. They've helped me a lot in informing me about the Air Force. 1/16/2024.

I’ve been in the process of joining for almost a year now, I needed 2 moral waivers that I’m waiting to hear back on. Trying to be super optimistic about it all but I am a little nervous. I went to military college and for as long as I could remember I’ve wanted to serve my country. Just praying to god they give me a chance.

@Jodywithawhy 4 месяца назад

The reason why I haven’t is because of how hard it is to transfer to the Air Force. The Air Force doesn’t really have a good prior service program. Unless you go guard or reserve. Then it’s pretty easy.

I’ve been thru the process and I’m in the delay entry program right now but it’s not what my parents wanted or approve of I’m still wondering if I made the right decision but coming from a small town it’s completely true what you said I really hope the Air Force is going to show me a life to break the cycle but yet I’m still having second thoughts if it’s something I’d really want being I signed up for the accelerated program for 6 years.

@Jodywithawhy Месяц назад

I doubted my decision to join the Air Force all the way up until about 2 years inside of it. lol. The doubt is normal, but give it some time and it can be the best decision you’ve ever made. 🤙🏽

You should make a video for old people like me who want to join, cause I just found out you can join at 42. There’s a lot of people capable, who want to serve but age is the problem.

Hey Jody could you make a video explaining the difference between a 4 year contract, 6 year contract, 10 year contract, and 20 year contract?!! Pay and benefits.

@Jodywithawhy 4 месяца назад

I’ve made a video like this before. Keep in mind the Air Force only allows 4 or 6 year contracts. In order to do 10 or 20 years, you have to reenlist a couple times. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-88oVyciP0yE.htmlsi=nWU_s2kIxeWb7cdF

I watched a ton of your videos a few months ago, did some research, contacted a recruiter and now I’m shipping out in a month for one of the wildest jobs I never thought I’d do. I was working a retail job with a GED and not much else, now me and my wife can have far better stability and we can adventure new horizons. I’m telling ya’ll LISTEN to this man, I’ve never been more proud of myself and that’s only gonna get stronger once I graduate BMT and tech school, I know it.

that video of the caveman in the chains reminds me of how my life was when I was younger smoking, fornicating, addicted to video games and a rejected kid trying to fit in with a group just doing bad things before I gave my life to Jesus Christ because there was a desire to change in my heart to change “there has to be more to life than this” when I gave my life to him, I felt free and joy and I started losing old friends because they didn’t understand it. Some people like the chains and others not ready to let them go. I’m 26 now trying to join the air force and grateful to have this opportunity.
