KC Chhipwadia - "I Don't Belong Here", navigating NASA, The United States Navy & finding his purpose within Athlete Foundry

KC Chhipwadia has served our great country in two capacities. He spent 20 years as a senior human space flight engineer at NASA Johnson Space Center, supporting over 50 Space Shuttle missions, including the Space Shuttle Columbia accident investigation. If that wasn't impressive enough, KC has spent over 20+ years in the United States Navy as a Surface Warfare Officer, including deployments to Iraq looking for those missing-in-action and Afghanistan with Naval Special Warfare. His NASA and US Navy life-changing events, challenges, and experiences uniquely prepared KC to discover his life's true purpose ― to improve the odds and inspire others to seek and achieve their dreams by crushing inequities ― starting with student-athletes. KC is the founder and owner of Athlete Foundry, a company with a suite of products to lift and positively impact pre-college student-athletes & families across the country. What I love about KC is that he is unapologetically obsessed with diversity, inclusion, and gender equality. Episode Resources:Athlete FoundryKC ChhipwadiaLink to purchase:FYLPxWRDSMTH Merch Collaboration*suggestion is to size upDownload this episode of For Your Listening Pleasure wherever you get your podcasts!
