Three driven women share their inspiration and motivation as they become strong leaders and role models.
“I believe it is important to embrace failure. Failure teaches us a better lesson than success ever could.” ~ Staff Sgt Kalinda Luna, Group Enlisted Executive, 86th Medical Group
“If I could go back in time, I would tell my younger self to cherish the present moment. We should seize the opportunity to live fully in the present, embracing its joys, challenges and uncertainties.” ~ Staff Sgt Emma Patterson, Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge, Deployment Medicine, 86th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron
“My mom inspires me. She was a 22 year old raising two young children. I will always be impressed with how much she provided for us and her success in the male dominant career field she worked in.” ~ Airman 1st Class Alysia Whitehead, Dental Laboratory Technician, 86th Dental Squadron
