Home for the Holidays: Strength in Transition

Written By Yvonne Jaramillo Ahearn, JD

Exclusively from Women of COMPASS

Our own Hawaii Compass Military Division member, Nathalie Champion, was recently a panelist for an inspiring discussion that celebrated the resilience, adaptability, and heart of those who have either served in the military themselves or supported others—whether as spouses, family members, or within military communities. This special conversation, themed "Home for the Holidays: Strength in Transition," explored the deep connections between service, community, and the meaning of home—particularly poignant during the holiday season.

Our panelists shared reflections on the challenges and rewards of reinvention, the lessons learned through military experiences, and the profound ways these experiences shape their understanding of home. Together, the panelists, all with a deep connection to the military and military clients, honored the spirit of service and celebrated the heart of what truly makes a house a home. The full discussion is featured below and is a wonderful opportunity to connect, reflect, and find inspiration as we look ahead to a new year.

Guest Panelists: Nathalie Champion (Honolulu, HI); Suzy Pittman (Houston, TX); Devin Curlings (Raleigh, NC) all of the COMPASS Military Division.
