Captain Reyné O’Shaughnessy has been a commercial airline pilot for over 34 years for a Fortune 500 company.

Before recently retiring, she captained Boeing 767s and has logged more than 10,000 hours of heavy jet flight time and was one of the first women qualified in 747s.

Reyne recently launched a book – “This is Your Captain Speaking, What You Should Know About Your Pilot’s Mental Health” that was released on September 21, 2021.

And yours truly edited the manuscript!

Her book has become a #1 bestseller and hot new release in multiple categories on Amazon.

Reyne’s new book combines her 3 decades as an airline pilot and ten years as an aviation strategist specializing in health and wellbeing. It takes a closer look at the mental health issues facing pilots today and offers practical solutions.

Under current FAA regulations, pilots experiencing conditions such as stress, anxiety, and depression risk losing their medical certificate, and therefore their livelihood, if they report these conditions.

Reyne will share her own “come to Jesus” story about a health crisis that ultimately saved her life, as well as shifted its trajectory. After listening to thousands of stories from her colleagues, she decided to give voice to the voiceless and become a passionate advocate for reforming regulations regarding pilot mental health.

You won’t want to miss this crucial and compelling conversation.
