She shares personal stories, hard-earned wisdom, and practical advice drawn from her experiences navigating multiple roles at once.We talk openly about the challenges and rewards of owning a business while living the unique rhythms of military life, including frequent transitions, balancing family responsibilities, and staying grounded during seasons of uncertainty.
