In this powerful episode of The Mike Litton Experience, Mike sits down with Colonel Robert Magee and TC Curtis—two extraordinary leaders whose experiences shaped one of the most influential leadership cultures in modern Air Force history.
Colonel Magee shares how he transformed organizations downrange during high-pressure operations supporting the fight against ISIS, building what became known as the legendary Ocho culture—a tribe where people matter, voices are heard, and everyone rises together.
TC Curtis opens up about hitting rock bottom during a painful divorce, facing career setbacks, and finding new purpose, confidence, and identity under Colonel Magee’s mentorship. His journey from “not being seen as a leader” to becoming an empowering force for young officers today is nothing short of inspiring.
