We Served too: Still Invisible - The Reality Women Veterans Face Every Day

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industry

The images most people see on Veterans Day tell only half the story. K

Cat steps to the mic with a heartfelt solo message that blends pride, grit, and a clear challenge to the media and the public: broaden the lens and see the women who served. Drawing on 20 years in the United States Air Force—including the realities of being a single parent in uniform—she shares why representation isn’t a favor, it’s the truth, and how invisibility shapes who gets honored, heard, and helped.

We dig into what service really looks like beyond the montage: leadership forged under pressure, teamwork that outlasts the uniform, and humor that held units together on the hardest days. Cat explains why she created Sisters in Service—to end the wait for recognition by telling the stories ourselves—and highlights the diversity of women veterans whose work often goes unseen: the mechanic with oil-stained hands, the medic who steadied chaos, the pilot who broke ceilings and lifted others, and the mom who deployed and still led with grace. These aren’t exceptions; they are the veteran story.

You’ll hear a direct invitation to parade organizers, newsrooms, and communities to honor all veterans and to stop defaulting to the same faces. And you’ll get a personal charge to expand your own picture of a veteran by looking at the women you already know—coworkers, neighbors, leaders—who once wore the uniform. We close with a rallying cry to women veterans to take up space, post their photos, and share their stories. If this message resonates, subscribe, share it with a sister in service, and leave a review so more listeners can find these voices and join the movement.
