b'From a small 3-Stop light town in Colorado, to the silver screen\\u2026 Navy Veteran Jennifer Marshall is highlighted on this special Veteran\\u2019s day release of #YearOfTheVet!

By far one of my favorite conversations to date (even though I sounded like I was out of it the whole time), the #YearOfTheVet family is absolutely going to love this conversation with Jenn as much as I did\\u2014and soon you\\u2019ll realize why!

Given a pretty shitty and unstable foundation to build upon, Jenn fought to never be looked at as a zero, and because of that she\\u2019s a hero! Joining the Navy immediately after High School, Jenn\\u2019s military career looked promising until Jenn started to get the adverse reactions to the anthrax shot that was forced upon us right after 9/11. This Operational Iraqi Freedom veteran and at some point Junior Sailor of the Quarter set sails to Hollywood, California (see what I did there?), but not before educating her mind!

Jenn\\u2019s primary claim to fame is her face\\u2026 and that\\u2019s not a sexist remark\\u2014Jenn lands roles for a living; and you may have seen her in some small productions you might miss if you\\u2019re not looking like Stranger Things, and Hawaii 5-0. She\\u2019s also been is some American classics like Poseidon Rex. Jenn\\u2019s busy. Let\\u2019s put this into perspective\\u2026 She and I are mid-Thirties. She served her country, went to college\\u2014twice\\u2026 volunteered teaching time abroad, volunteers all over California with 5 different groups, AND STILL has 57 acting credits to make up just a scratch of what Jennifer brings to the table.

Man, I tell you\\u2026 This conversation is bananas, because I feel like we get as deep as we can while trying to fit in as many topics as we can, and we hit some pretty tight emotions! We cover everything from becoming a student veteran in a college that primarily doesn\\u2019t share the same views of the world, to the taxing process and emotional joy of adoption! We cover tricks of the trade on the Hollywood scene, as well as the selfish benefits of volunteering.

There\\u2019s even talk of drug addiction, and sexual abuse.

Jennifer Marshall came on the show and gave me her all, and I am grateful for her authenticity, and her ability to make me look good in this conversation! I\\u2019m honored that she came to share time with me for this conversation, and I hope that all women heroes out there have the opportunity to hear this episode of #YearOfTheVet and find strengths in your own stories, to own your voices like she has\\u2014and inspire those behind you!
