Tetiana Poudel watched with shock from Silicon Valley as Russia invaded Ukraine last February. But for her, the fight was personal. As a Ukrainian-American, she sprung into action, organizing fundraisers to provide combat boots to troops in Ukraine and even traveling herself into Ukraine to deliver supplies to her father’s military unit. On this emotionally intense episode of She Pivots, Emily talks with Tetiana about how the war in Ukraine upended her life, her immense personal sacrifices to help the war efforts in Ukraine, and her father’s role on the battlefield.
