Dr. Mike Smith is a truly incredible coach! His entire process is tailor-made for the individual. Though Mike has never served as a pastor of a large congregation, I found him to be amazingly adept at providing guidance in a field not his own. His principles of mental toughness and focus on core purpose are so fundamental to all forms of leadership, which helped me excel in my responsibilities and grow our church to the next level.

Dr. Mike Smith's book is a deep dive into the important issue of societal acceptance, what it is, how and why it impacts quality of life, and how we can break free. Dr. Mike draws his conclusions from research, not simply theory or opinion. This book is an important read for anyone struggling with acceptance, particularly veterans and former service members struggling to transition back into civilian life. Erasing the line in the sand is an easy, enjoyable read. Kudos to Dr. Mike for this excellent book!
- fireman rob verhelst, guinness book of world record holder
As a firefighter who has experienced the heart-pounding traumas of saving lives, and as someone grappling with PTSD, "Erasing the Line in the Sand" by Dr. Mike Smith struck a deep chord in me. Smith’s exploration of societal acceptance, especially in the context of veterans transitioning into civilian roles, resonated with my own struggles of finding belonging after trauma. The psychological effects of perceived acceptance or its lack, as laid out by Dr. Smith, are enlightening and invaluable.

The line in the sand... we’ve all heard the cliché saying “Draw a line in the sand” which portrays the point that an individual will not go past or placing a limit on what someone will accept or do. In many ways, societal acceptance (the need for belonging, approval addiction or whatever name you attach to it) can have the same effect when an individual feels like they are excluded versus included. This book dives a little deeper into societal acceptance, more specifically among veterans who are transitioning into a civilian job after military retirement, and looks at how an individual perceives the level of acceptance they are experiencing (or not) can impact their lives. The bottom line to societal acceptance is that the phenomenon truly exists and is rooted in both theory and research, and it is my true hope that this book provides valuable data and a unique perspective on how we can navigate this on an individual level as well as support those veterans who retire and still have so much value to contribute to society.
At the height of his career, Mike was selected to serve as the First Sergeant of the elite USAF Thunderbirds Air Demonstration Squadron, where he traveled around the world representing the men and women of the Air Force through airshows, community visits, and speaking at events.
After retiring from active duty, Mike transitioned into the civilian sector where he became a corporate leader in a Berkshire Hathaway Energy company working for Warren Buffet and Greg Able. In that role he provided leadership, mentorship and guidance to company employees at all levels, including senior corporate leaders.
