Ep. 128: Universal Truths and Hardships as a Military Spouse


Listen Later

There are people like you all over the world who just “get it”. We can have completely different backgrounds and be in completely different locations, yet have very similar experiences in military life. 

 

Friends and family can do their best to support you, but the truth is sometimes you need another military spouse who truly understands the hardships and loneliness of deployment, the struggles of keeping everything together when their spouse is gone, and the uncertainty of not knowing where you’ll live in the next few years. 

 

You’re never alone in this journey and we’re here to support you, no matter what your address is.

 

In this episode, I introduce you to Suzie (my amazing Virtual Assistant that keeps Married to Military running so smoothly!), who shares her personal experience as an international military spouse. We explore:

 

  • How Suzie’s career was derailed due to being a military spouse

  • The key distinctions between US and UK military spouse life

  • Suzie's perspective on the different phases of deployment

  • Insights into her virtual work and the flexibility it offers

  • Valuable advice for all spouses when it comes to asking for support

  • How military life can enrich your life

 

Join us for an engaging discussion on the challenges and opportunities faced by military spouses worldwide.
