    Respect with Kiana Bell (CSM)

    Have you ever had someone you worked for and went "how did they get there?" That's what I got to see with Kiana Bell, an active duty Army sergeant major. She gave us the inside scoop on her life, from her early days as the oldest of six children helping raise the others, to progressing through the Army while dealing with all the curveballs, to finally addressing life outside of your career. This helped me understand how people make it to retirement as well as we all go through some wild times in this life. Be sure to give her a follow as well and enjoy the listen! @k_witdanews CHECK OUT THE MERCH BELOW: https://linktr.ee/bennyandtheguests

    The Wheel with Philip Bowen

    Your roots are not what define you, but they are a core element you must never forget. Philip Bowen, an accomplished musician and singer-songwriter, has had an amazing life of musical prosperity, from America's Got Talent to TikTok to recent albums and collaborations. He is only going up and it's going to be hard to stop him. Through all of this, he told me about how he is still astonished to come from somewhere so small and make it in spite of everything that tells us no. His new album is coming out this fall and you can check out his single, "The Wheel", on all streaming platforms now! Check him out!  ⁨@PhilipBowenMusic⁩  https://www.philipbowenmusic.com/
