Marjorie K. Eastman joins Emily and Jason for Episode 019. Marjorie served as a US Army Intelligence officer and commander, and she wrote “The Frontline Generation: How We Served Post 9/11”. Her ten years of post 9/11 military service include two combat deployments, one in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and the other in support of Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Their conversation covers her upbringing in a large family and how that shaped her character early; her choice to enlist after college and lessons she carried forward as a commissioned officer; how she broke new ground for women; dealing with loss and other challenges on deployment; defining herself in authentic leadership with her signature smile; and what she believes military veterans and others who serve bring home to their communities.    Marjorie, through her writing, speaking and charitable work, continues to sound the call for National Service — especially for women. She is the spouse of an Army Ranger, having met her husband Charles on a deployment to Iraq in 2003. She wrote “The Frontline Generation” to their son, now 8, as he battled and beat cancer as a baby. She credits her fortitude and resilience to her years on deployment, as well as being the spouse of one deployed, lessons born of serving something greater than oneself. “Someone else gave me this sweet privilege of freedom, to live my little life to the fullest. Someone else did. They gave their life for it. And I must never forget this. I must honor them, make a difference in my own way — and make it count.” - Marjorie K. Eastman Links: Marjorie K.

Across all branches of the U.S. military, only 14 percent of active service members are women. Veteran, mother, and entrepreneur, Marjorie K. Eastman is a marvel who wants to change that number. Her book, The Frontline Generation, was the first of its kind to define post-9/11 service and leadership and what it means for this country. After 10 years in the military, Eastman’s journey is far from over. She’s now involved with Bunker Labs, a nonprofit network for veteran entrepreneurs that has had immeasurable success. Her son was diagnosed with cancer when he was six months old, and he was given a 30 percent chance to live. However, Eastman focuses instead on how her army career helped her cope with the situation.

This month we're celebrating SHEs in Service and featuring Marjorie K. Eastman, a veteran SHE who dedicated 10 years of her life to our country as she served in the Army as an intelligence officer and commander. While in service, Marjorie was the No. 1 intelligence commander in Eastern Afghanistan. Recently, Marjorie wrote and published The Frontline Generation: How We Served Post 9/11, a book that details her time in the field, while challenging its readers (and beyond) to choose to be part of what Marjorie has coined the Frontline Generation -- those of us who find a mission and decide to take action.

In this episode of the Mandatory Fun podcast, we once again speak with Army veteran, national speaker, and acclaimed author of the 2017 Independent Publishing Award-winning book The Frontline Generation: How We Served Post 9/11 — Marjorie K. Eastman. Marjorie is also an accomplished executive and operational professional with over 20-years experience in leading people and various organizations. Her award-winning book began as a personal memoir for her son. Marjorie's goal was to capture the lessons and inspirations she learned serving beside men and women who represent the very best of what it means to be American — the 1% of the population in the military. She respectfully identifies this group as the Frontline Generation and notes that it is an untapped reservoir of leaders who have been strengthened by their Post 9/11 service. [2:00] Here's the reason why this acclaimed author decided to join the military. [7:25] Marjorie explains how she received her direct Army officer commissioning. [11:50] What gave Marjorie the motivation to move forward and write her now acclaimed book. [16:10] The story behind why Majorie smiled at a drill sergeant during boot camp [20:30] What helps define a strong female presence in a leadership position. [25:00] What veteran stories Marjorie loves to tell during her public speaking events. [31:15] The complete explain behind the story "Yes, man. No, man."

Marjorie is the acclaimed author of the 2017 Independent Publisher Award (IPPY) winning book, The Frontline Generation: How We Served Post 9/11.  The book began as a personal memoir for her son and turned into the first to define post 9/11 service and leadership. In this episode we discuss: • The term Frontline Generation, and what it means. •  Writing a book for her son •  Why she decided to independently publish, vs. a traditional publisher? •  How intelligence professionals view the world differently. •  What it’s been like to share unfiltered journal entries with the world.
