CAPT + Jess
A former Navy SEAL senior leader and the woman behind the brand who never pretended any of it was easy. Real life. Real stakes. Full speed.
About us
Brian brings rare credibility to the creator space — he isn't recounting past service from the sidelines, he's actively operating at the executive level today. Jess brings the counterbalance: warmth, honesty, and a grounded perspective on family and the life they're building together. Together they reach three distinct audiences that rarely share a feed: military and veterans, executives and business leaders, and couples and families.
Capt. Brian G. Cunningham
USN (Ret.) · EVP, QuSecure · Speaker
Elite operator judgment, translated for leaders and high-functioning civilians. Four advanced graduate degrees. A current seat in the C-suite. Equally at home breaking down AI tools for executives, dissecting leadership failures, or sharing the operator perspective no corporate comms team would approve.
Jessica Cunningham
Military spouse · Mother of four · The honest voice in the room
Not curated calm — the chaos, the humor, the exhaustion, and the love that come with running a full household alongside a husband whose career has always demanded more than most. The voice military spouses recognize immediately, and overwhelmed mothers bookmark.
The Captain's Reading List · Free
I get asked the same question in every boardroom and at every speaking engagement: what should I be reading? This is the actual list — the books I've returned to across two careers in Naval Special Warfare and the technology executive world. Each one earned its spot.

A high-credibility male voice and a high-relatability female voice, sharing a life and speaking to different audiences — and occasionally to the same one at the same time. For brands looking to reach multiple demographics in a single activation, the duo placement is among the most efficient in its category.





Based in Southern California — premium coastal, operationally authentic, immediately recognizable to military and veteran audiences. The location is a production asset, not a backdrop.
