In this special throwback to one of our earliest episodes, we honor the women who paved the way in the maritime industry long before Women Offshore was founded. These trailblazers, or "Early Wave Makers," as we call them, have stories that deserve to be told and lessons that continue to inspire us today.

In our earlier episode 5, we feature a unique perspective from Andrew Zimmerman, an accomplished author and contributor to Women Offshore. With a deep respect for maritime history and the women who have worked on the water, Andrew has been a steadfast supporter of our mission since the beginning.

Join us as we revisit Andrew's journey, from earning his Bachelor’s Degree in Marine Transportation to his experiences on commercial vessels worldwide. Discover why a man has been so dedicated to writing for a platform celebrating women in the maritime industry. His insights, both as a historian and a mariner, offer a compelling look into the legacy of women at sea.

Tune in and get an inside look at the stories that shaped the maritime industry and continue to inspire the next generation of women on the water.

This is the 215th Episode of The Women Offshore Podcast. Christine shares a secret to receiving feedback. She discusses lessons learned along her own personal journey of hearing tough feedback and separating her self-worth from other's opinions of her and her performance.

Their paths have all remained intertwined over the years, united by a passion for marine conservation. They have committed their lives to understanding, protecting, and sharing their passion for the Ocean. Competing in the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge is one more platform for them to draw attention to ocean protection, and to support the people and organizations on the front lines of the fight for our ocean.
