Description

Meg Tucker began her career as an Army Kiowa Warrior pilot. After the Kiowa was removed from the Army inventory, Meg was assessed and selected for Army Special Operations as a Psychological Operations officer. She has served in several conventional, Joint, and SOF roles in South Korea, El Salvador, and Syria. She left military service as a Major in 2023. In 2018, Meg founded The Valkyrie Project to fill the need for intuitive, woman-centric human performance training in the wake of the revocation of the Combat Exclusion Rule. Valkyrie is now a 501c3 nonprofit focused on the advancement of American servicewomen through research, education, and advocacy. Meg currently serves as the President of the Board of VP Inc. She holds a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Modern Languages from Winthrop University and a Master's of Science in Information Strategy and Political Warfare from the Naval Postgraduate School.More about Meg:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meg-tucker-937493207/More about The Valkyrie Project:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-valkyrie-project/Website: http://thevalkyrieproject.orgFacebook: @valkyrieprojectusInstagram: @valkyrieprojectusYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@valkyrieprojectusTimestamps:00:00:22 What Languages Does Meg Tucker Speak?00:02:37 Getting Away with Brazilian Portuguese in Portugal00:05:42 Relearning Languages00:06:47 Starting The Valkyrie Project in 201800:16:34 Body Armor Changes for Women00:20:27 Current Progress on Improvements for Women’s Armor00:22:31 What About MOLLE Packs?00:26:00 The Skill of Packing a Rucksack00:29:07 Distribute the Types of Testing for SOF Candidates for More Balanced Athletes00:31:29 The Valkyrie Project’s Military Women’s Symposium00:34:05 Worst Advice Ever Received00:36:18 Good Advice for Everyone in the Service00:38:34 Outro
