How a Husband and Wife Duo Developed a Lifesaving App w/Charles and Holly Roselle:: Ep 214 MMTBP

In this episode, I sat down with Charles and Holly Roselle. Charles is a former member of the Secret Service and served for 16 years during the Bush and Obama administrations. Charles shares interesting stories from his time in the Secret Service. After leaving the Secret Service in 2015, Charles transitioned to the private sector, working in physical security for a biotech company. This experience helped him understand the importance of communicating the value of security to business leaders.

Holly met Charles while he was in the Secret Service. She discusses some challenges of being married to a Secret Service agent, including the unpredictable schedule. She worked at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center during Operation Iraqi Freedom, specifically at the military's Advanced Training Center, which was the amputee center. After her time at Walter Reed, Holly worked with a special operations group in the Washington D.C. area, providing psychological skills training and mental training specifically for combat operations. She transitioned to working as the mental performance specialist for the Navy SEALs out in Coronado, California

Together, Charles and Holly have now developed the Force Field app, which is designed to provide safety and security for lone workers like home health aides and real estate agents. The app allows users to check in and out, with missed check-outs triggering alerts to emergency contacts. They are passionate about creating a culture of safety and valuing employees through their technology solutions.
