Michelle “Mace” Curran is a combat veteran, former fighter pilot, and only the second woman in history to fly as the Lead Solo for the Thunderbirds, the U.S. Air Force’s elite demonstration squadron. Now on a new mission, she’s using her story to inspire others to take bold action and flip their fear. Her debut nonfiction book, The Flipside: How to Invert Your Perspective and Turn Fear Into Your Superpower, translates high-stakes lessons from the cockpit into powerful tools for life, leadership, and lasting confidence. As an internationally sought-after keynote speaker, Mace has delivered impactful talks for top organizations like Microsoft, John Deere, SpaceX, PwC, and Purina, helping audiences around the world build courage, trust their instincts, and take decisive action—even under pressure. Her insights and story have been featured by major media outlets including The Kelly Clarkson Show, CBS Evening News, Glamour, and more. She’s also a “LinkedIn Top Voice” whose content reaches millions monthly, known for combining fighter pilot grit with humor, heart, and real-life tools that resonate far beyond the cockpit. Whether on stage, on screen, or on the page, her mission remains the same: to help people turn fear into fuel and lead with boldness.
