In Episode Three of Cost of Admission, Nick Lavery sits down with retired Green Beret Terry Pevehouse for a powerful conversation about freedom, sacrifice, leadership, and family.

Drawing from decades of military service, combat deployments, and life after the Army, Terry shares what he’s learned about responsibility, intentionality, and the unseen costs carried not only by those who serve — but by the families who stand beside them.

Together, Nick and Terry discuss:

• The true meaning of freedom

• The sacrifices military families make behind the scenes

• Balancing service, fatherhood, and professional life

• The importance of being fully present at home

• Why growth requires discomfort and responsibility

• The choices and consequences that shape a meaningful life

As Memorial Day approaches, this episode serves as a reminder that freedom is never free — and that the greatest legacies are often built through quiet sacrifice, discipline, and service to others.
