Fear is as natural as unavoidable; we can't run from it, yet we can prepare ourselves to deal with it in the best way possible.
This week, our guest, Colonel Kim "KC" Campbell, takes us right into the face of fear flying 1,000 miles per hour at 45,000 feet of altitude. In her soon-to-be-published book, "Flying in the Face of Fear," Kim narrates how facing the scariest situations as a fighter pilot transformed her views on leadership and teamwork. The inspiring colonel served in the Air Force as a fighter pilot and senior military leader for over 24 years. She is also a Keynote Speaker, a Best-Selling Author, and a Leader.
We had a delightful conversation about Kim's experiences and learnings as an Air Force fighter pilot, vulnerability, and courage. We also talk about the moments of terror Kim lived under Bagdad's sky and how her training saved her.
In addition, Kim shares her thoughts on fear, courage, how to be prepared for life's defining moments, and more.
