Married After Kids

Ep. 121: Deployment Series 2.0 - I Can’t Do It Anymore. What Do I Do?


Listen Later

Feeling overwhelmed, defeated, and hopeless while your spouse is deployed? You’re not alone.

 

Too often I hear from struggling spouses that they can’t take one more day of deployment. It’s just. too. much. They feel helpless because getting through another day seems impossible, and they just don’t know what their next step should be to make it better. 

 

Feeling this way about deployment while your spouse is gone AND having difficulties in your marriage is HARD. You may feel unsupported, underappreciated, and not valued by your spouse. This makes all the sacrificing and everything you’re responsible for back at home very challenging. 

 

In this episode, we’re breaking down what you can do when you’re at the end of your rope with deployment (or your marriage).

 

We’re exploring:

  • How to make the biggest difference in your life and marriage

  • The one simple thing that will literally change EVERYTHING for your marriage (and the science to back it up)

  • How our thoughts and expectations can impact our relationships during deployment

  • The slippery slope of deciding you can’t do this anymore

  • The “right” support you need throughout deployment that is crucial for spouses
