He didn't set out to be different.
He learned by rebuilding.
Timothy Cobb was a Navy Combat Riverine who ran long distance for fun, and earned his way into BUD/S Class 301, the training program that produces Navy SEALs. After a deployment to the Middle East, and in BUD/S (SEAL) training, he blew out his right hip. Full orthopedic reconstructive surgery followed in October of 2013.
The orthopedist gave him a choice: class back up in BUD/S, risking a permanent hip replacement before 50, or walk away and build something new. He chose a different path when exiting the Navy in May 2014.
What followed was a decade of rebuilding himself not just physically, but professionally, and personally. Along the way he worked in private equity, commercial brokerage, and real estate development. Along the journey came a couple of books, a few hard lessons, and a growing conviction that what we learn rebuilding can be useful to someone else.
Rebuilt & Forward is a place he shares those lessons.
