About this episode

Erick interviews Mo Barrett, a motivational speaker and pioneer for women in aviation, discussing her challenges and achievements in the U.S. Air Force.

Erick sits with Mo Barrett, a high energy, hilarious motivational speaker, TedX regular and a pioneer for women in aviation! I was blessed to sit down with her to discuss her upbringing, challenges navigating societal norms and bias and “being the first” in history to do something amazing in the United States Air Force! This retired Colonel will have you invested! She’s that good.
