Today we will have a meaningful conversation with Elis Salamone, an entrepreneur, a board-certified Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner, and an Army/Air Force Combat Veteran. She will delve into a deeper meaning of failure and success, the importance of planning, looking at the pros and cons when transitioning, and much more. 

Episode Highlights:

• 04:05- Looking at pros and cons in transitioning  
• 04:35- Don't move for a job, but to a place with a support system
• 12:39- The meaning of failure and its relevance to success
• 13:36- Combating the unconscious biases of being a military woman of color in the civilian world

3 Key Points:

1. When you get out of the military, be careful where you move to, don't move for a job, but move to a place where you have a support system. 
2. Failure is not the end, but it's just another stepping stone to success. Re-engage, pivot, and go in a different direction as you learn from it. 
3. Franchising is a very successful business model where most veterans became successful owners because they know how to follow a system.
