Being a military spouse. It comes with its challenges. So I'm just really passionate about helping other military spouses through this transition and maybe starting your own business or supporting your spouse while they start their own business because no matter what, you're going to be a part of it and you have to take that leap together. And the SBA's new program called the Military Spouse Pathway to Business Program, I think that's really important because it's similar to the Boots to Business program, but it tailors to and empowers the spouses.
I just want to say I'm so glad I came today. It was very last minute sign up, but I think it was a great decision. I feel overwhelmed sometimes starting out my new business and now I feel like there are resources available to me, a lot of them at no cost to me. So that makes it feel a little bit more possible to reach the goals that I've been setting for myself.
