Covid-19 Series: Helping Women Veteran Entrepreneurs Thrive with Guest Leader VR Small

12/04/20 • 54 min

VR Small has dedicated her work to helping two groups she is passionate about - women and veterans. As a Navy veteran and a member of a military family, VR came back to the business world with a mission and a simple personal slogan of "changing the way we see the world and do business."
To that end, VR started the Veteran Women's Enterprise Center. The WVEC aims to help veterans, active duty, reservists and female military spouse scale for success. They establish strategic alliances, leverage public/private-sector opportunities, advocate for relevant research, services and funding, while simultaneously providing on-site the personal and professional resources they need to succeed.

Covid-19 Series: Fitness and Wellness Over 50 with The Angelique Miles

An accidental influencer, Angelique Miles spent much of her professional life on top of the music business. Speaking to The Oprah Magazine, Angelique said, "Name a singer from the ‘90s and I probably signed them—Missy Elliot, Timbaland, Busta Rhymes. Back then, I was Angelique Miles, music publishing executive, creative, married to the president of Arista and Slack Music." But a combination of a divorce, 9/11, and the rise of digital music sales left Angelique looking for work. And that led to her feeling unhealthy and needing to do something about it. So she started chronicling her workouts on social media.
That's when her influencer career took off! How does it feel to be a social media personality during a time when that space is dominated by people half her age? What about her journey do people connect with? How do workouts change over the age of 50?
