Are You Ready For the Next Crisis? (Special Episode with Disaster Expert Dr Chris Ellis).

This week we go deep.

Our host Graham Summers, MBA discusses crises: financial, personal and even societal with disaster expert and author, Dr. Chris Ellis. The conversation ranges from personal resiliency, overcoming loss, personal tragedy, preparedness, and even finding purpose in the chaos of life.

Dr. Chris Ellis is a career Army officer, disaster readiness expert, and lifelong student of how people, communities, and nations prepare for the worst. With over twenty-six years of military service—including time in combat zones and collaborative work across five continents—Chris has seen firsthand what resilience looks like under pressure.

Chris holds a Ph.D. in Government from Cornell University, along with four other advanced degrees covering public policy, military strategy, and international security. His work blends academic insight with boots-on-the-ground experience, tackling big-picture threats like civil unrest, nuclear catastrophe, economic collapse, and even the end of the world.

Chris is appearing today in his personal capacity. His views do not necessarily reflect those of the Department of Defense or his current command.
