  • TRAILER | MSgt Ronnie Deschenes feat: Mrs. White | The Ronnie And Angie Show!

    On the next episode of HeroFront I sit down with my best friend Ronnie and discuss our first assignment in the Air Force together, Andersen AFB, Guam in 2004. We discuss how our horrible first impression set us up for failure for the rest of our time there, using the "haters" and other poor supervisors to further drive our current success, and best of all we discuss the shenanigans we got into together that make for some really hilarious stories. We tried to angle this episode for any new Airman out there wanting to make a difference and how to not shoot themselves in the foot doing so. Lastly, this episode features my wife Angie! After a few glasses of wine she insisted on getting on the mic, and hilarity ensues. Enjoy! I love you all!

  • Colonel (Retired) DeDe Halfhill: Vulnerability, Shame, Empathy, and Courage...lets dig in! Ep 16
    Described by Dr. Brené Brown as one of her “leadership heroes and a total badass” in the New York Times’ bestseller Dare to Lead, U.S. Air Force retired Colonel, DeDe Halfhill, brings her real-world perspective on leadership based on her 25-year accomplished career.
    We discuss her leadership philosophy on understanding the role emotion plays into how we show up as leaders. In her words: “Gaining a granular understanding of our inner emotional world helps give us control over how we show up as leaders. Gaining comfort with the language of emotion helps us help others with the same process. Vulnerability, shame, empathy, and courage ... lets dig in!”
