Dive deep into the world of transitioning from military to civilian careers with your host, Cheryl Cross and a lineup of active duty service members and veteran guests who bring their firsthand experiences, expert advice, and inspiring stories to light.Meet Our Guests:Autumn Wheeler is in the thick of her military to civilian career transition, or as we like to call it, is "in the SOUP", where she is navigating the complicated terrain of what she wants to do post-military.  Autumn's spirit and dedication resonate through our discussion, providing a beacon of hope and direction for many transitioning veterans.Richie Lampani, a recruiting expert and advocate for all things military-career, brings practical and useful advice to empower veterans. Explaining what a 'contingency' recruiter or headhunter does, you will gain insights that cut through the complexity of the civilian job market. Shawn Welsh, veteran and podcast host represents the voice of the recent veteran, navigating the 1-4 year post-military journey. Shawn's story, while not uncommon, serves as an example for those who want to 'strike out on their own' and carve their own path. Shawn Welsh owns his unique thumbprint in the civilian sector, and like us, is giving back to the Veteran Community with his own show, the VET S.O.S. Podcast. Carin Sendra, with over five years of experience post-transition, Carin speaks truth to honor in sharing her personal transition story. She talks about what could be done differently and how we all can make an impact for those leaving the military and the 'constant' transition to civilian career life.If you or someone you know would like to be a guest on the Military to Civilian Career Transition Power Hour, let us know.
