Dianna Sisnero ~ Operation Comfort

In 2003, American Airline attendant, Janis Roznowski, started flying Soldiers and Marines in and out of Kuwait City. During this time she was deeply impacted watching them come home injured and ill. Feeling the need to give back, Janie started visiting wounded service members at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany and later Brooks Army Medical Center in San Antonio.

In 2004, she started the non-profit, Operation Comfort. What started out as a simple gesture to give back has morphed into supporting wounded warriors and their families through emergency financial assistance and adaptive sports.

Due to family health issues, Janis was unable to stay at the helm. However, with the help of executive director, Dianna Sisnero, and her team, Operation Comfort is in its 19th year, and continues to run strong.

Join Jay and Donna and they talk with Dianna about the mission of Operation Comfort, the gratification watching warriors overcome their adversity, and challenges of running a non-profit on a shoestring budget.

Diannas Bio

Dianna is currently the Executive Director for Operation Comfort, and is responsible for overall operations. She has been with the organization since June of 2007. She began her journey as the assistant to the Founder and Executive Director, Mrs. Janis Roznowski.

Before joining Operation Comfort, Dianna was the Family Readiness group leader of her then husband's unit located at Fort Drum, New York. She worked to support her unit's families who were transitioning in and out of the military, and during deployment.

Dianna was born and raised in New Braunfels, Texas and came home in December of 2006 after her husband was unexpectedly medically retired from the Army.

Dianna has always worked in the non-profit world and held several positions over the years as a Teacher, Social Service Assistant, and Assistant Program Director. She loves working with children and families in low income communities, children with different abilities, and of course service members and their families.

It is her mission to help Wounded, Ill, and Injured Service Members and Disabled Veterans through programs that keep them actively engaged in their healing. The programs that her and her team work tirelessly to offer provide recreation, rehabilitation, and most importantly, healing.

Operation Float A Soldier ~ Wes Garnett

What could be better than fun in the sun?! Having fun in the sun while supporting Veterans, is what!

In 2005, two friends, Wes Garnett and Seth Warnick, watched the first troops come home from Afghanistan and Iraq, and were motivated to help. What started as taking a few wounded service members out on a boat, has turned into Operation Float a Soldier, an all volunteer 501(c)3 dedicated to giving respite time to the soldier and family. They do this through water recreational sports - fishing, boating, jet skiing, water sports, or just relaxing in Canyon Lake. And it wouldnt be a complete day without a good ol Texas BBQ lunch.

Donna goes solo, as Jay was out sick, with Wes to talk about Operation Comfort, the journey of starting up the non-profit, and how he and his team keeps the non-profit running over the last 17 years.

Mike Johnson, Retired USAF Veteran talks about Multi-Entrepreneurship

There is a saying, entrepreneurs would give up a 40 hour job to work 80 hours for themselves. Starting up a new business can easily take many more hours than a cushy 9-5 job. But entrepreneurs would happily put in the extra hours to be in full control of their lives.

What about the entrepreneur that owns multiple businesses? How do they keep up? In this episode, Donna and Jay talk to Mike Johnson - veteran, owner of a print supply business, operator of Mr. Fireworks, and home building consultant. They sit down to discuss how Mike got into each business, how he manages all three, and learning to go with the ebb and flow that comes with business ownership.

Mikes Bio

Mike Johnson has lived in the Bulverde/Spring Branch area since 2001. After moving every 1-3 years the first 40 years of his life (as an Army brat through High School, then the next 22 years for his own career in the Air Force) Mike has enjoyed setting his roots in Texas the last 28 years. Having developed a myriad of skills as an Intelligence Analyst and Senior NCO (retired Senior Master Sergeant/E-8), Mike chose to be his own boss as a civilian. He currently owns San Antonio Print Supplies (24 years), operates the Bulverde Mr W Fireworks Superstore (10 years), and is a home-building consultant for Built Green Custom Homes (2 years). As a professional networker and connector, much of his time is spent helping others in the community. Mike has been very active in the BSB Chamber of Commerce since 2013, to include being Chairman of the Board for 2017 and 2019. He has served as Vice Chair of the BSB Chamber Foundation from 2019 to present. He serves on the board of several other non-profit organizations, including Acacia Medical Mission. Mike currently attends Hillside Fellowship in Bulverde/Spring Branch.

Developing and Implementing a Business Concept ~ Karen Sroka

Do you have an entrepreneurial itch? Do you see a gap in the market that you feel you can fill? Are you just tired of having a boss or grinding out the 9-5? Are you staying at home to raise your children and thinking about ways to bring in a little extra income?

Starting a business from the ground up is no easy feat. We often hear people throw out the statistic that the average business start-up lasts only 5 years. But wait, that is not every start up! There are start-ups that have been and are successful. What does it take to break from the 5 yr statistic?

Donna and Jay bring on guest host Karen Sroka, veteran and owner of My Scratch Offs. They discuss how her business came to fruition, what it took to get it off the ground, the trials and tribulations, and what she has learned during her 14 years of owning and operating the business.

Karens Bio

Karen Sroka is an entrepreneur and the Founder and Creative Executive of My Scratch Offs. She was born and raised in Maryland. She enlisted in the Air Force at the age of 19. In the Air Force she worked as a Medical and Aeromedical Evacuation Technician. After the Air Force she chose to return to school full time, at Allan Hancock and Excellsior College, and stay home to raise her 2 daughters Madison (17) and Molly (14). While Molly was still an infant is when My Scratch Offs was created. Her love of graphic design is what spurred the idea to create My Scratch Offs. A company that started in 2008 to bring to the consumer market little-known scratch off products. In 14 years, she, and her small staff, have built a physical and online business presence that is rivalled by few. Karen grew the business in her home for the first 4 years and then moved the business into commercial space, where she remains today.

Theron Van Meter ~ Taking Advantage of DODSkillbridge To Build His Future

Did you know the DoD has a program that allows any service member, with commanders approval, to do an internship if they are within 6 months of separation? The Skillbridge Program was developed in 2009 to help connect service members with industry to get real world civilian experience and skills.

Theron Van Meter is a 21 yr retired Air Force Red Horse civil engineer. After 6 duty assignments and multiple deployments he was ready to move on to his next adventure. Him and his wife decided to move back to her hometown area of San Antonio. Before retiring he decided to take advantage of the Skillbridge program.

As Donna and Jay continue their entrepreneur series, they explore the world of franchises. In 2021 there were over 750,000 franchises in the US and it is expected to grow to close to 800,000 by the end of 2022! That equates to almost $800 billion in revenue and giving 8 million people jobs.

Veteran Help Point ~ Michelle Lang

It is incredible to realize there are over 40,000 veteran focused non-profits. The heartbreaking part is the majority of them have a lifespan of 1 year! So many people have altruistic intentions, only to find themselves overwhelmed with the business side needed to keep the nonprofit running.

Donna and Jay bring in guest host Michelle Lang - veteran spouse, mom, and founder of the nonprofit, Veteran Help Point. They discuss why Veteran Help Point was launched, what it took to start it, and tips to think about before starting a nonprofit.

Michelle Lang has been a military spouse for about 6 years. She graduated college with a bachelors degree in Business/Sports Management and went on to work in the wellness field as a Community Health and Wellness Coordinator. Here, she helped assess the needs of the community and fill them by finding programs to implement. She left that job in 2015 to join her now husband in Fort Drum and began struggling to find meaningful work again.

Shortly after her husband transitioned from the military in 2019, they were made aware of the severe gap of finding local veteran resources to help her husband and family. Through this struggle, Michelle began to think about a big picture solution to this issue. Their family moved down to Fort Bragg after her husband rejoined Active Duty and that is where Veteran Help Point began in November 2021.

Today Michelle advocates for military spouses and veterans by connecting them to local resources they need while building the database of local resources through Veteran Help Point.
