Women in the Military: From 1 to Many

Starting my journey in the military I was forced to challenge myself and the perception of others to accept women in their ranks. As the first woman in an infantry brigade, I stood out as the only one among 4,000 paratroopers in the infamous 82nd Airborne Division. I worked to challenge the status quo and pave the path for other women and men to succeed. Through leadership and mentorship, the teams I led in combat and in national security in the Pentagon that made real and lasting change. I'll share the secrets of how to break through those barriers and achieve lasting change through both motivational speaking and written works on leadership.
