Conversations with Daisy Jones

In this episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones, Daisy sits down with Oscar and Rose Smith for a thoughtful and insightful conversation about leadership, family, and lifelong discovery.

Before their aviation chapter began, both Oscar and Rose built successful corporate careers. Rose served as an innovative and sought-after Human Resources Director, known for her leadership and ability to guide organizations and people through complex challenges. After retiring from corporate leadership and living in multiple cities, the couple chose an unexpected next chapter.

They joined Delta Airlines and made history as Delta Airlines’ first married flight attendant couple, traveling extensively and gaining a unique perspective on people, cultures, and the shared human experiences that connect us all.

Oscar also reflects on growing up as a preacher’s kid in the historic AME Church and how that early spiritual foundation shaped his understanding of leadership, service, and purpose.

Today, the couple continues their impact through the L. Christina Smith Foundation, honoring legacy while investing in future generations. In this conversation, they share insights on reinvention, mentorship, and the role seasoned leaders can play in guiding emerging leaders.

Keywords: leadership, reinvention after retirement, HR leadership, Delta Airlines flight attendants, faith and leadership, mentoring emerging leaders, career transitions, travel stories

Noon Day Bible Study

NDBS @LOC, 12 noon, Tuesdays.

Beware of Spiritual Nonsense. We're diving into the Book of Jude, which is one of the shortest books in the Bible. Throughout the New Testament, there are serious warnings about false teachers, falling away, and drifting from the faith. Our Lord Jesus warned that false prophets would arise, the love of many would grow cold, and only those who endure to the end would be saved - Matthew 24:11-13.

In this episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones, Daisy talks with Krystal Hart, president of the Seabrook Village Foundation, about preserving and teaching Gullah Geechee culture.
