b'The #YearOfTheVet family welcome Shannon Corbeil\\u2026 that\\u2019s Corbeil like Sorbet. An Air Force veteran who answered the call to service after 9/11, Shannon joins us to talk about her road to the silver screen.

Right off the bat, you notice that Shannon\\u2019s ability to create a calm, fun, and enjoyable environment breaks through, and that same energy is held throughout our conversation.

In her past life, she served as an Intelligence Officer\\u2026 but luckily for her, while stationed in Maryland she rekindled with her passion and fell into her future\\u2014one she had memories of starting as early as 8 years old.

A LOT is talked about, and sometimes we go on tangents\\u2026 well\\u2026 sometimes, I go on tangents, but one thing\\u2019s for sure\\u2014Shannon is the real deal. She gives guidance to aspiring artist, she shares stories of advice that was given to her\\u2014in order for her to be able to make film her career. She shares a little about the not-so-glorifying aspect of fighting to get noticed, yet still in all that\\u2014we tell each other jokes. Like\\u2026 actual jokes.

Shannon makes time to give back to our community, and not just by being a guest on the show\\u2026 but by involving herself in the world that was created to give back to the veterans. She shares about her involvement with the phenomenal Architecture in Motion group, Diavolo\\u2026 and also her connection with Pin-Ups For Vets\\u2014a non-profit that uses the money it raises to provide the VA and other facilities aiding veterans, with new, updated, or missing medical equipment that would help provide better care for our brothers- and sisters-in-arms.

In fact, if you would like to pre-order your copy of the newest Calendar to be released next year, please visit www.PinUpsForVets.com, and reserve your copy today! Shannon can be found in November\\u2014so after listening to today\\u2019s conversation, you can tell people, \\u201cI know her\\u2026 kinda\\u2026\\u201d

I highly encourage you to reach out to Shannon, regarding any questions covering breaking into show business, classes to start out with, We Are The Mighty, Diavolo, Pinups For Vets\\u2026 or anything we\\u2019ve covered in the show. I had a blast with the soon to be household name, and I hope you do too!
