Season 2 of Taking the Lead Podcast has been fantastic! Be sure to check out earlier episodes for more engaging conversations.

This week I had the most amazing time interviewing Tiffanye Boyd Wesley. We discussed her journey while climbing the ranks to become the first woman and African American Fire Deputy Chief on the Arlington County Virginia Fire Department in their 80-year history.

Discussion

• Her vision from the beginning as a young Fire Fighter
• Points of loneliness and isolation in her career
• Challenges and obstacles in a male-dominated career
• Advice to other women looking to breaking barriers professionally and much more
