Jo Ellis spent years serving her country as an Army National Guard aviator and Black Hawk helicopter pilot. She wanted to fly, serve, and be part of something bigger than herself. Then, after a deadly aircraft collision over the Potomac, a false rumor spread online claiming Jo was responsible. She was not involved. She was not even there. But because she was a trans service member, the internet turned her into a target.In this episode, Ryan talks with Jo about service, identity, courage, and what it feels like to have your life turned upside down by a lie. They talk about her path from helicopter mechanic to pilot, the SERE training experience that forced her to confront the truth about herself, the cost of being publicly scapegoated, and why one of the most Stoic things we can do is resist the urge to have an opinion about everything.<a href="https://www.instagram.com/joellisreally" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow Jo Ellis on Instagram</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/joellisreally" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@JoEllisReally</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WYC-flN8Nc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Watch Jo Ellis on Kill Tony</a> | <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WYC-flN8Nc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WYC-flN8Nc</a>🎟️<a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> DAILY STOIC LIVE </a>| Ryan Holiday is coming to a <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">city near you</a>! <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Grab tickets here</a> |&nbsp; <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.dailystoiclive.com/</a>🎙️<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> AD-FREE </a>| Support the podcast and go deeper into Stoicism by subscribing to<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic Premium</a> - unlock ad-free listening, early access, and bonus content:<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://dailystoic.supercast.com/</a>🎥 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">VIDEO EPISODES</a>| Watch the video episodes on<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic YouTube channel</a>:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos</a>✉️ <a href="https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FREE STOIC WISDOM</a> | Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
