Veterans, Entrepreneurship, and Purpose: The Mission of VB3 with Paula Wilson & Christopher Rogers
In this episode of Sounds of Health, host Dave MacNiven talks with Paula Wilson and Christopher Rogers, the founders of VB3: Veterans Build Better Businesses. They share how VB3 helps veterans rediscover purpose after service, navigate the challenges of transition, and build meaningful businesses with real community support. Paula discusses her experience as a caregiver to her husband, a veteran living with a traumatic brain injury, and how VB3 gave him a renewed sense of identity. Christopher reflects on his own post‑Army struggles and how creating VB3 helped him rebuild direction and connection.
VB3 is growing quickly, supported by their local community and driven by a mission to empower veterans through mentorship, shared services, and entrepreneurship.
