About

I am a professional pilot with charter, corporate and airline experience (still flying ), and a professional athlete who managed an all-woman professional skydiving team for over 14 years. I have flown small planes and big planes, I have participated in world record skydiving attempts, I have jumped off cliffs and bridges, I delivered twins (one of them a breach), and I have raised a family by myself. (that’s a lie, every mother knows, it takes a village, and I have had an amazing one)

I am now pursuing the next chapter in my life with my blog, podcast,  and my book, still in progress, by the same name. This has been one of the biggest challenges of my life and I am enjoying every single second of it.

The gravely voices came loud and clear over the airwaves, deep and dark and said, “another empty kitchen”. What was that about?, I wondered. I heard it several times, before I queried a captain I was flying with, “What does that mean?”

He responded, “Well, you’re a woman, you probably left a husband and kids back home, and you took a job from a man.” Are you fricking kidding me! I was shocked and at that moment, my future became clear. I would write a book about my experiences as a mother, a wife (or an ex-wife as it ended up) and a woman pilot. The book would be called “Another Empty Kitchen.”

We are spreading the word that we can work our asses off, achieve our dreams, have children or take care of elderly parents, and share our stories with other women who might be questioning what they are doing with their lives.

While I reorganize my life, I am revisiting some of the most popular episodes from Another Empty Kitchen. This episode is very near and dear to my heart; my interview with author and badass adventure woman, Caroline Paul. Caroline shares inspiring experiences from her own life, as well as women who, in the later years of their lives, decided to step way out of their comfort zones and take on challenges they might never have imagined earlier in their lives. From climbing to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, to bird watching to BASE jumping, Caroline shares these stories in her books, The Gutsy Girl and Tough Broad. She challenges all of us to get out doors, get into nature, change our perspective and maybe even add a few good years to our lives. I love this episode. Please give it a listen, whether it is your first visit to my podcast, or you are a loyal follower, I know you will get some inspiration from Tough Broad, Caroline Paul. Thanks for being here. I appreciate all of you. Leave me a comment on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or my website, While I reorganize my life, I am revisiting some of the most popular episodes from Another Empty Kitchen.
