I just wrapped up an incredible 2-day "Boots-2-Business" entrepreneurial workshop at Kings Bay Navy Submarine Base, and I couldnāt be more inspired by the amazing group of leaders I had the honor of working with.
This workshop was filled with six incredibly engaged and passionate professionalsāfive from the Navy and one from the Marine Corpsāeach with a unique vision and drive to launch their own businesses. They are interested in starting businesses across a wide variety of fields, including the restaurant industry, temporary service contracting, CPA firms, and even mechanics! š
I was impressed by our one individual who hadnāt yet decided on what business to start. Despite being undecided, their contribution, insights, and perspectives added so much value to the entire team. The level of engagement, energy, and curiosity throughout both days was absolutely inspiring!
I also noted their unwavering commitment to continue servingānot just in uniform, but through entrepreneurship. There is no doubt in my mind that these leaders are on their way to creating businesses that will positively impact their communities, their families, and the world.
Iām beyond grateful that our paths crossed, and Iām excited to see what each of you will accomplish as you move forward on this entrepreneurial and life journey. Your legacy of service will continue, and I have no doubt you'll keep making an incredible difference.
Hereās to your next chapter of service and success! I salute you all!!!
