This episode is more than just a moment of remembrance—it’s an invitation to realignment.

Memorial Day carries deep meaning for me, not only as a veteran and widow of a fallen hero, but as someone who has walked through the fire of grief and come out the other side with a sharper sense of purpose. In this episode, I’m inviting you into a conversation about life, legacy, and the kind of leadership that matters most.

Whether you wear a uniform or not, your life leaves an imprint. Today, we pause to reflect on what kind of legacy we’re living—and how to make sure it aligns with the calling God placed in us.
