Listen Later

Join Author, Veteran and Military Spouse Christina and I as we talk about her time in the military, her life changing diagnosis, how her faith and writing has brought her meaning and peace in her life.

Christina Borden is a Military Spouse and Veteran, having served for eight years on Active Duty and in the Reserves. She is also a loving mother to one child whom she has the incredible pleasure to homeschool, while corralling two rescue kitties and one Blue Pit.

She has education and experience in Theology, Business, Environmental Science, and Medical Science, which she uses to help see every situation from another angle in hopes of thinking outside the box.

Christina, raised in a Christian home, has clung to her faith throughout her life relying on it to help her through deep loss, struggles in her military career, and life changing diagnoses. When she was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Osteoarthritis, Hemiplegic Migraines, and a general classification for "auto-immune disorder," she realized that life would never be the same.

Deciding to focus on her faith and positive thinking rather than focusing on all the negatives tied to each diagnosis, Christina has spent the past ten years working toward a healthier lifestyle and healthy mentality in order to have less stress and less strain on her body. Thus also began her quest to work on her own terms without giving up on her passion and her heartfelt desire to help others, even in the tiniest of ways.

A writer from a young age, with a deep seated desire to help others realize their potential no matter what others think or do, Christina started as a blogger, then a ghostwriter and editor before finally finding the time and ability to write for herself. She now spends her time within two careers that allow her to tap into her passion and gain fulfillment from building up others.
