I attended an RYF symposium in 2018. As I prepared for military retirement RYF helped me immensely to do the soul searching necessary to determine what my next stage in life would be. The RYF team is genuinely supportive of helping not just women military and veterans, but also the spouses of military people. I quickly became a male ally of RYF, and eventually, joined as a board member to help RYF continue its mission.

I attended a 2-day Redefining You event three years ago, right before I retired from the military. It changed my perspective in life by giving me the space to ask not just what I wanted to do in life, but more importantly, who I wanted to be in life. The reframe led to my next stage in life as a leadership coach, loving who I am and what I do, too!
Since then I've partnered with RYF during two webinar events during COVID, and look forward to serve as a board member in 2022.
Redefining You Foundation was impeccable during my transition from the military. I spent 30 years in the military and the transition was not easy for me. The coaching, teaching, mentorship along with the resources and tools that are taught through their symposiums is second to none. This organization is the epitome of what a nonprofit organization looks like and I want to thank the entire time for all their support throughout my transition.

Redefining You Foundation is a foundation that is truly what all transition veterans need to assist them in their transition. The resources and opportunities that are offered through the foundation are essential to all Soldiers transitioning into the civilian workforce or inspiring entrepreneurs. Shellie and her team has what it takes to ensure all needs are meet for the Soldiers as well as their spouses. I have collaborated with this team on several occasions and I have never been disappointed. Their professionalism and dedication to serve the community is the epitome of a nonprofit organization.
Transition as most know is challenging however, RYF gave me the opportunity to share my story to help other amazing service women to transition with a community of support. RYF was the first to listen to our community of women and immediately provided so many with hope and assurance we needed after transition. They were able to provide resources that were not known before walking out of the gate. RYF helped me walk into my next like a BOSS and I am grateful! RYF is apart of my story and I recommend every transitioning service member (woman or man) seek them out today. RYF is changing lives and letting us all know that our best days are in front us. I’m not Retired…I am just getting started! RYF Thank you ❤️

No matter how long they have been out or if they haven't started yet they make sure they include everyone.

Redefining You Foundation assisted me during my transition out of the Army. They helped identify some of the issues I was going through during my transition, such as what to wear or how to dress, finding my community, my mental health and financial questions. Very deep conversations and emotional for those that attended. Great program for everyone to attend.
