Caregiving is often the cornerstone of family; for many of us, our parents are our first caregivers.

How does that impact our caregivers? Join host Jennie Brooks and Nora Huggins, a project coordinator in Booz Allen’s Civil Sector, as we explore those very questions.

“Go to school, get a degree, get a good job,” is the path that so many of us were placed on and yet, in 2024, 50% of the workforce face barriers to those jobs because they don’t have a degree. That’s not to say that these are “unskilled” workers, in fact, most often this population are skilled through alternative routes, which is why TearThePaperCeiling.org refers to them as “STARs”. Join host Jennie Brooks in conversation with Katie Hermosilla, a Senior Vice President in Booz Allen’s Civil Sector as they shine a light on how apprenticeships have helped Booz Allen to tap into the diversity of educational backgrounds to meet our collective need for a skilled workforce that includes everyone.

“Women in leadership,” “women in tech,” “Women’s History Month.” This framing positions women as outsiders, but the reality is that women have long been serving in tech and leadership, long before we had the words for it. Tune in with host Jennie Brooks as she sits down with mobility coach and Community Engagement Lead for Booz Allen’s Women’s Employee Community, Amie Price. Together, they explore what it’s been like for Amie to be an early adopter of remote work, the growth that is possible through affinity spaces, and how being “mobility curious” can be leveraged for greater flexibility, adaptability, and retention of talent, whoever they may be.
