Amy Wade is a Senior Noncommissioned Officer in the United States Air Force and the Commandant at the Langley Airman Leadership School.
On this episode, Amy takes this time to reflect on uncomfortable situations that she was thrust into at a young age, such as a public speaking contest. As terrifying as that sounds to most people, she constantly had the support of her mother. Amy’s powerful message is about not only having that "corner man" in life that instills that courage into you, but being that person for someone else.
