Military spouses Josie Beets and Libby Jamison, frustrated with their own licensing barriers, share their obsession with all things occupational licensing with MissionLICENSE. MissionLICENSE encourages freedom to work, reducing barriers to employment and reforming occupational licensing laws. Also, Josie does a powerful karaoke rendition of “Fancy” by Reba McEntire while Libby can usually be found tweeting about dogs and cheese.
Licensing and true love! Hear how finding love led to a love of licensing issues (really!) as Josie explains what brought her to the licensing work. Libby brings all our love for Arizona Governor Doug Ducey. We talk about the $500 reimbursement the military services are (finally) getting to spouses. And, last but not least, Josie fondly remembers the brief moment that everyone in Texas was a plumber. Feedback? Let us know at info@missionlicense.com
Hosts Josie and Libby round up the latest occupational licensing news, including the PCS Act, military spouse Corie Weather's epic video about navigating licensing issues to serve military families, and how MissionLICENSE is leading the conversation about occupational licensing solutions with the US Chamber Foundation's Hiring Our Heroes military spouse program. Also, we hear how Libby's entrepreneurial journey began with her lemonade stand, and we make it through the whole story without making a single Beyoncé joke.
