Award-winning Author, Dr. Amanda Zeine joins From Battle to Business Podcast on June 24, 2025

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. - Rezul -- Dr. Amanda Zeine—pediatrician, retired U.S. Army veteran, award-winning author, and founder of A.L. Zeine Books—joins Dean Van Dyke on From Battle to Business to share her powerful journey.

Amanda is no stranger to service, sacrifice, or starting over. After 15 years as a pediatrician and flight surgeon in the U.S. Army—and a traumatic brain injury that changed everything—Amanda's mission took a creative turn. Now retired and thriving in a new chapter, she's using storytelling to support the most overlooked heroes: military children.

In this heartfelt and humorous episode of From Battle to Business, Amanda shares her journey from the clinic to the creative desk, her passion behind the Cul-de-Sac Kids series, and what military life has taught her about resilience, family, and identity beyond the uniform.
