      Applying Lessons from Military Life to Create Success in Business Start-ups

      By Jen Griswold

      Praise for Mission Entrepreneur

      This book is a MUST read for women everywhere who have big dreams and a heart to put family first. Jen Griswold brilliantly shares the significant challenges military spouses face, while providing actionable strategies on how to become their very own entrepreneur…the milprenuer. Women everywhere will love this book as Griswold inspires each of us to live, give, serve and grow, while becoming greater advocates for our beloved military community.

      - Jamie Petersen, Co-founder, Team GiVe

      As a military spouse and entrepreneur, this is the book I wish had years ago! Jen has such a giving spirit, and now she’s giving her readers an incredible opportunity to soak up her wealth of knowledge!

      - Courtney Slazinik, CEO, Click It Up A Notch (and a military spouse)

      Jen Griswold reminds us that we already have the tools, and offers insights into a variety of paths to success, harnessing these tools and giving them new meaning and life. A must read for any “seeker” looking to expand beyond the mundane.

      - Jennifer LB Robins of Predominantly Paleo, 4x bestselling cookbook author and Founder of Legit Bread Company (and military spouse)

      So often I hear people say that they have a great business idea, but no idea what to do with it, or where to start. THIS is where to start. Through vast personal experience, insight from industry leaders, and advice from fellow entrepreneurs, you’ll be moving from concept to profitable business in no time!

      - Bridget Platt, CEO, Daddy’s Deployed (and a military spouse)

      Mission Entrepreneur is about following your dreams and reminding us that they sky really is the limit. Jen’s story is the voice for all of the military spouses who refused to quit even though the odds were against them.

      - Maureen Dougherty, CEO, Northeast Girl

      Entrepreneurship is about creating solutions to big problems. As both a veteran and military spouse, Jen understands the difficulty faced by the family of military members. But she also understands the potential they have to create value for each other and for others while supporting their spouses. Jen provides practical advice to military spouses who want to have it all: build and own a business while still being a world-class partner to their military member/spouse.

      - Eli Bremer, Air Force Officer & Olympic Athlete

      Military spouses no longer have to feel trapped and isolated. Thanks to Jen Griswold they can dream bigger. She is there to help them forge a new path.

      Dedication

      To my Mom, thanks for instilling a spirit of service and an unwavering belief that I could make a difference in this world. Whether you realize it or not, your example is the inspiration for almost everything I’ve done in life. I love you!

      To Jamie and Team GiVe and so many other sideline partners, thank you for making this story worth telling. Your dedication to yourselves and to your businesses proved my ideas could work. I couldn’t be more proud to work with such amazing individuals!

      To Kev, Cole and Ally, this book is as much yours as it is mine for all the extra help and support you gave me while dreaming it and writing it. I love you for believing in me!

      In memory of our sweet dog, Tucker, who was my trusty sidekick for 14 years of this story.

      Last, but certainly not least, this book is dedicated to all the military spouses who yearn to create and run something of your own. Your collective energy drove me to overcome my own fears and make this book a reality! Never give up on you, you’re worth it!
