In our latest episode, we sit down with Beth H Macy, a Navy veteran and multifaceted talent, to uncover her unique journey into military service shortly after the Vietnam War. Beth opens up about her initial goal to join the military.
Beth provides an unvarnished look at the challenges female veterans face, particularly single parents navigating male-dominated fields.

She also dives into her successful transition from a high-tech career to becoming an author of Russian spy novels, inspired by the pandemic lockdown. With future projects on the horizon, including a potential movie adaptation and a solo art show, Beth’s story is a testament to embracing fear, taking risks, and the endless possibilities that lie ahead for those brave enough to push boundaries.
