Ep. 131: Navigating Isolation as a Military Spouse with Sarah Curtis


Listen Later

Want to know how feelings of isolation can become your source of connection and empowerment?

 

Meet our inspiring guest, Sarah Curtis, who doesn’t shy away from the challenging topics of military life. In this episode, we share aspects that are less commonly discussed within the military community, like the feelings of loneliness and the rollercoaster of emotions that can impact not only you but also your marriage.

 

Why is this conversation so crucial? Because it reminds you that you are not alone in your experiences. It's a reminder that your feelings of isolation can be shared by others, and together we can find strength and connection.

 

We’re exploring:

  • Maintaining a strong marriage whether your spouse is home or away

  • Embracing and normalizing uncontrollable timelines

  • How Sarah navigated the questions “who am I?” and “what impact do I want to have on the world?”

  • The importance of choosing compassion over comparison

  • Addressing feelings of loneliness and isolation

  • The duality of military life
