On the new episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome the first man ever to be featured on the show — Olyn Sexton. Olyn is a retired law enforcement officer, tactical firearms instructor, and the CEO of the Lindsey Pilkington Memorial Foundation. This is a powerful and inspiring conversation about empowering women, protecting women, and carrying on the legacy of someone you love.
This episode continues our special month-long series on SASSGO and the life-changing I Will Survive Weekend. SASSGO is a nonprofit organization that protects women and girls from assault and exploitation through education, self-defense, and empowerment — and Olyn is one of the dedicated instructors helping to elevate that mission.
In this episode, you'll hear:
✨ Olyn's journey from law enforcement officer to instructor — and how his experiences in life and on the job transformed the way he serves and protects others today;
✨ How he became involved with SASSGO, Fortis Tactical, and the I Will Survive Weekend — and why he's so passionate about empowering women through tactical firearms training, self-defense, and situational awareness;
✨ The story of Lindsey Pilkington — a bright light, fierce fighter, and dear friend — whose life was tragically cut short, but whose legacy lives on through the Lindsey Pilkington Memorial Foundation;
✨ How grief and loss led Olyn to a deeper purpose, healing, and mission — and how he now walks alongside others through their own journeys of training and healing;
✨ The importance of showing up, listening, and standing in the gap for others — especially women and survivors;
✨ And so much more.
