Building Movements with Hardcore Doers

One person is one person, but when hardcore doers find each other, we don't just accomplish individual goals. We build movements, companies, solutions that can change entire industries. One such example is how our Women Veterans Strong project even got started. Back in 2019, I had started to live out publicly my passion for taking care of hardcore women. These were women that work in non-traditional industries. Of my own accord, I walked into a Veterans Action Coalition in my local county, and I was just there trying to represent perhaps a need for strong women to come together and collaborate. And what happened that day was nothing short of exponential impact. We went around the room and introduced ourselves and what we represented. And after that meeting, a gentleman named Chaplain Brian Webb walked up to me and said, Shelly, I have a pot of money that I've just been granted, and I'm looking for a woman to run a peer project for military women. Right there. Perfect. Yes, that's what I do.
