Listen Later

In this powerful episode of Connect Like Minds, host Sharryse Piggott sits down with Joie Cook — a military service member and founder of Support Her Boots, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting female veterans.

Joie shares her journey from growing up in a military family to serving in the military herself. She opens up about the unique challenges women veterans face, the transition from military to civilian life, and the inspiration behind launching a military nonprofit focused specifically on female veterans.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The realities of being a woman in the military
• Challenges facing female veterans after service
• Building community support for women veterans
• Veteran wellness, mental health, and self-care
• Health and wellness events for veterans
• The importance of civic engagement and voting in the veteran community
Women veterans are often underrepresented in conversations about military service. Support Her Boots is working to change that by creating safe spaces, resources, and community for women who served.
If you are passionate about supporting female veterans, military women, veteran mental health, and nonprofit leadership, this episode is for you.
