- Why Faith, Family & Service have guided her way throughout her life and career: “Good things come to those who work hard”;
- How evil in the world is a reality and how it factors into military service missions for the United States of America;
- What the statistics include of women working in the military and in military aviation;
- How she managed through overt sexism in her early entry in her career field;
- How being a woman (and a mother) has included a real-world impact to her role;
- What her experience of losing her son Gabriel during a pre-term birth meant to her and her husband -- and how it further unified her marriage and strengthened her faith;
- What life is like during overseas deployments in hostile territory;
- How elitist attitudes inaccurately inform public perception about who serves in the military;
- Ways in which the military mission poses a stark disconnect with softer-society ideals … and how this disconnect drives misconceptions of what the military is even supposed to be doing;
- An overview of the situation in Afghanistan
- How a public self-expectation of resilience and self-reliance is being lost in society … and how this issue is relevant in the current COVID-19 reality
- How placing personal priorities must drive our can-do spirit in any crisis.
