The Warrior-Scholar Project: Turning Military Experience into Academic Excellence | #53

In this episode, I sit down with Kaedy Molley of the Warrior-Scholar Project (WSP). This national nonprofit helps enlisted veterans transition from military service to success at America’s top universities, including Ivy League schools.
Kaedy shares her journey from serving as a U.S. Navy Arabic Cryptologic Linguist to mentoring and empowering fellow veterans through organizations like WSP, Student Veterans of America, Next Step Inbound, and the Ivy League Veterans Council.
We discuss how the Warrior-Scholar Project’s immersive academic bootcamps equip veterans with the tools, confidence, and community they need to thrive in higher education. Kaedy also sheds light on the challenges many veterans face when navigating academia and how WSP bridges the gap between service and scholarship.
This conversation is an inspiring look at what happens when veterans are given the opportunity, mentorship, and belief they need to reach their full potential.
