In this episode of Beyond Orders, we sit down with Kerissa Frigo. Veteran, military spouse, mom of two energetic boys, and now an Executive Assistant with Squared Away.


Kerissa shares her journey from serving five years in the Air National Guard to navigating a decade of marriage through the highs and lows of military life. She opens up about raising a child with Williams Syndrome and how that experience has reshaped her outlook on resilience, adaptability, and purpose.


Today, Kerissa brings that same strength and perspective into her role supporting leaders at Squared Away, where she helps them stay focused, organized, and ready for whatever mission comes next.


This conversation is about more than career shifts; it’s about how the challenges of service, parenting, and perseverance equip us with the skills to lead and support others in powerful ways.


Tune in to hear Kerissa’s inspiring story and discover the lessons she carries from the Air National Guard to the homefront to the clients she serves today.
