Jocko Willink is a former US Navy SEAL who earned the Silver Star for his commendable leadership as the commander of SEAL Team 3's Task Unit Bruiser during the Battle of Ramadi in the Iraq War in 2006. Enlisting in the US Navy in 1990, he later advanced to the rank of lieutenant through Officer Candidate School. In 2015, Jocko published his first book, "Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win," which became a New York Times best-seller. That same year, he appeared on Timothy Ferriss's "The Tim Ferriss Show" podcast to promote his book, an appearance that helped pave the way for his own podcast, The Jocko Podcast.
