The Mingle's Media

This section is dedicated to pre & post event blogs, articles, interviews and mentions that are specific to The Mingle.

"The Mingle" is an INVITE ONLY VIP event for women in the firearms/self defense industry. This is a 1 day and/or 2 day sponsored women's meet & mingle that can include a guest speaker, SWAG BAGS, 2 hour "blocks" of firearms training with top tier instructors at our range in Dahlonega, GA and door prizes! Please CLICK ON the event year that applies to "your Mingle's" details as each year is different.

Our sponsors will be lending a hand in helping women in the firearms industry gain knowledge and meet MORE ladies in the biz. What a fantastic opportunity to be able to "pick the brains" of the ones that paved the path before us and meet ladies who offer NEW ideas. With the help of our sponsors, The Complete Combatant will offer a place for women to meet "like minded" ladies and build relationships to support business, networking to expand contacts and to explore our own personal growth in business, tactics, self-defense, marksmanship, professions & MORE!

THANK YOU SPONSORS!
Shelley Hill

CLICK HERE: David Yamane of Gun Culture 2.0 write an article called Don't Be An Amateur, Support Racheal's Rest & The Mingle!

This is an outstanding BLOG that talks about getting BEYOND the one percent. Most of us allocate a certain amount of our resources — time, treasure, talent — to helping others. How great would it be to support a worthy charity AND have the chance to rise above amateur status at the same time? It is possible.....

THANK YOU DAVID!!!!!

CLICK HERE: On March 10th, 2019 6:30pm I will was on the air LIVE with Rob and Amanda of Eye on the Target Radio!

We had some technical difficulties in the beginning but all got sorted out. Gotta love LIVE radio! They had Willes Lee of the NRA Board on the show as well! GOOD STUFF!

28 minutes and 25 seconds into the show is when I was supposed to come on but for some reason they were unable to get me off hold so they started without me! HEEE! I could not hear them but apparently they said some nice things about The Complete Combatant while they sorted it out. THANK YOU!

I actually came on at 30 minutes and 29 seconds into the show. We crammed as much fun as we could...Amanda even had to shut me up a couple times! Bahahahah! I love gabbing with Rob and Amanda! They are professional, inquisitive and supportive!

Picture
CLICK HERE: I was invited to gab with Paul Lathrop of Polite Society Podcast on Feb. 20th about The Mingle, our sponsors and the Nationwide Training Giveaway! It was published on March 3rd, 2019

Please consider listing to the entire show as it is packed full of good information and conversations.

I come on 28 minutes & 32 seconds into the program and it is roughly 15 minutes long. THANK YOU Polite Society Podcast!
