USNA MidMoms and More Podcast

So what does the decision to scramble (or shuffle) Plebes (and sometimes Mids) mean for them? Listen to the latest podcast episode based on my blog post "The Deja Vu of Scrambling and Shotgunning... Why do they matter?" available at USNAMidMomsandMore.org/my-blog

Join AN Shine and her special guest, Karl Smith, Navy Dad - USNA '20, author, and blog writer, as they discuss the Dark Ages, what they mean to our Mids and some strategies to bring some sunshine in!

The USNA Journey can be difficult but friendships, courage, and vision help us and our Mids to overcome obstacles and navigate the journey. Join me for my last Episode of 2021: "Together We Are Stronger: On Friendship, Courage, and the USNA Journey | Episode 12", with my three very special guests from the Class of 2022, Heather, Stacy, and Betty.

What are Service Assignments? How do assignments work? What are the different communities? What happens when the first choice is not an option? Join me and my very special guest MCPO Jeff Kirby, (USN, Ret.) as he shares his opinion and his 30+ years of experience as we talk about: "The Moment They Have been Waiting for - Service Assignments | Episode 13".

A candid conversation about being a USNA parent and riding the roller coaster of shifting and evolving relationships and emotions during the four years at USNA and beyond. This episode will tie together various aspects from Episodes 1, 2, 5, 7, and 9, with special guest, my husband Jeff.

Join me for a great conversation with my Dad and his "Band of 11th Co Brothers", the Club Eleven Class of 1959, that include his roommates and BFFs from his time at the Naval Academy. Funny memories, full disclosures, and some advice for today's Plebes and Mids.

As the Brigade approaches six week exams, join me for a candid conversation with special guest Julie Haller, "Making the Grade and Things to Think about: AC Year Highlights | Episode 9",  as we talk about setting the right expectations, AC Year challenges, communication glitches, things to celebrate, and remaining Semper Gumby as CoVid continues, and things to consider while supporting your Plebe, Youngster, 2/C, or Firstie through this N*ot College journey.
