In this episode we meet Luis Moros, an Argentinian immigrant who shares his story of overcoming homelessness and becoming an advocate for changes to our immigrant policies.  Luis explains what he and his mother, a doctor, struggled with- a connection that Carrie is surprised to have with Luis,   We talk about our experiences on #4Daysttosavetheworld, being the 1% and how every voice matters.  Luis shares his connection to The Cato Institute and his experience with the Florida International University.  Join us for a lesson on the power of being yourself.

In our newest episode, we are interviewing Carol Carpenter of MotoVixens.

After a hard divorce, Carol decided she wants to do something more with her life.  She wanted to challenge her comfort zone and do something most people would cringe at.  So she decided to take up racing motorcycles and shooting guns.

Join Carrie and Jenn as they explore themes many women face everyday.  Things like single motherhood, what is “proper” for a woman and a mother, what is our identity, how family affects our decisions in life and other important conversations we should be having with our daughters.

This time Jenn and Carrie are interviewing Emilee Little, founder of @LadyAviators on Instagram.  She has over 27k followers and makes it her content to highlight female aviators from every spectrum. You should check her out!  Emily herself is in the middle of a big transition- and we got to chat with her as she is literally in the middle of it!  Wanna know what exciting news she has?  Tune in!  Join Jenn and Carrie as they talk about Emilee’s journey, her passion and what makes her part of changing the Milieux!!

Holy smokes I’m at NASA!  

Do girls over compensate to feel like they are competitive to men?  Are men over complicating things at work because they are men or because they are engineers?  Jenn and Carrie tackle some of these questions as well talk about the show that Jenn will be on airing this Labor Day(!), going to OshKosh, WI for EAA Venture, Jenn’s experience shooting at a local simulator -changing how we teach firearms, and most importantly our Partnerships with TuskegeeNext, Lady Aviators and Preflight Aviation Camp!!

Nooooo!  We have been busy!!!  Jenn moved, Carrie Moved, Carrie works for NASA now, Jenn is going to be on a TV show, and they had to ROCK all the women in aviation events in March - including a special day supporting Moody AFB, GA.

Picking up where we left off:  Col Weeks retired after serving as the Commander of the 14th Flying Training Wing, Team BLAZE, in Columbus, MS.  We discuss the work still needed to recruit and retain more female aviators, discuss that self-care is not selfish, and share advice with those looking to pursue careers in the US Air Force.

From realizing she wanted to fly fighter jets at a young age to flying with the USAF Thunderbirds to commanding an Air Force Flying Wing, Samantha "Combo" Weeks has done it all and much more.  Currently retired from active duty Air Force, living and working in Colorado with her husband and two young boys, Sam joins us to share her stories and share advice with all of us, especially the next generation of aviators looking to join us in the skies.  We discuss being bold, growing grit and realizing self-care is not selfish.

This episode is shared in two parts -- Tune in for both as we learn about how she realized she wanted to fly fighter jets and how she achieved those dreams along with advice she has learned along the way.

Col Kim “KC” Campbell is an A-10 pilot, mother and Desert Storm vet who came under fire in Iraq. 

Her story is one of survival, teamwork, and quite simply, doing her job: to bring fire down on the enemy when our Army and Marine brothers and sisters request our assistance.

Jessica Ruttenber, a Lt Col and pilot in the USAF, and also creator of the blog HiddenBarriers.com is on a mission to make aviation more accessible to all potential aviators through the Women’s Initiative Team. After her own experience of fighting for a chance to fly, Jess realized that she had an experience that could help others, so she joined the WIT and got to work.

It’s a small group that was initiated in 2008, but recently has made some large impacts to pregnancy discrimination issues (https://www.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/1968299/air- force-reduces-barriers-for-pregnant-aviators/) and height restrictions that have been negatively impacting minorities across the military. Tune in as Jess breaks down the statistics, the impacts and the way forward that she and the WIT are working towards to break down the “hidden barriers”.
