Welcome to the Sisterhood of Sweat. I'm your host, Linda, and today we're bringing you an extraordinary conversation with Michelle Kern - a fighter pilot who turned fear into her ultimate superpower. Imagine going from a small town in Wisconsin to flying jets for the Thunderbirds, breaking through barriers, and conquering self-doubt at 9 Gs. Michelle's journey is not just about aviation - it's about how we can all harness our inner strength, challenge our limiting beliefs, and soar beyond what we thought possible. Today, we'll explore how small, bold choices can lead to massive transformation, why visualization is your secret weapon, and how to turn that inner critic into your biggest cheerleader. Whether you're an aspiring athlete, an entrepreneur, or someone looking to break through your own mental barriers, this episode is going to light a fire in your soul. So buckle up, because we're about to take off into a conversation that will inspire you to embrace your fears, trust your potential, and become the badass you were always meant to be. Let's dive in!
-
What drew you into aviation in the first place?
-
What was going on in your life before that that made you want to live such a bold, fearless life?
-
What was the moment you realized fear wasn't something to run from, but something you could harness?
-
How did fear show up for you in those moments, and how did you deal with it?
-
What did you find out about yourself when you showed up fully, stopped focusing on your fear, and had some faith?
-
How did you earn the nickname Mace?
-
What's the one message you want women to leave with today?
Quotes:
-
"Boldness is built, not born."
-
"Productive, healthy, happy people don't [leave mean comments online]."
-
"If you feel stuck, you know that you have more potential than you're currently fulfilling, otherwise you wouldn't feel that way."
-
"When you recognize that that entity [inner critic] can be something separate from you, from your identity, and that gives you that perspective to be like, okay, sure, but that's not factual, like you can take it or leave it."
-
"If I focus on the potential rewards of taking this risk... the potential rewards of taking this risk are so much bigger."

Teri opens up about the personal storms she's weathered, from the highs of Hollywood to the struggles no one sees—including her very real journey through financial hardship and filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
Teri also gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her newest film, "Relative Control," releasing April 11 on digital platforms. In it, she plays a powerhouse attorney juggling aging parents, a job in crisis, adult kids, and her own identity in the chaos. With humor, vulnerability, and grace, Teri shares the importance of embracing the mess, letting go of perfection, and finding resilience even when everything feels out of control.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by life’s curveballs, this episode is a must-listen. Because sometimes, losing control is exactly what leads us to what really matters. 💫
