Ep. 64: Deployment Series: Staying Connected When Your Spouse Is Gone


Listen Later

Being apart from your spouse for weeks or even months at a time can create real challenges in your marriage. But physical distance doesn’t have to mean emotional disconnection. In this episode, I share actionable strategies to help you maintain intimacy, trust, and closeness—even when you're thousands of miles apart. Whether you're currently going through a deployment or just want to feel closer during times of separation, this episode will help you feel more like a team and less like you're in this alone.


Tune in to discover:

  • What the research says about deployment and marital satisfaction (and how to protect your relationship)
  • The mindset shift that will instantly change how connected you feel—even before deployment begins
  • How to check in emotionally, even when time or communication is limited
  • The surprising power of appreciation and how to make it a daily habit
  • Simple ways to include your spouse in your day and maintain connection while they’re gone


You don’t have to lose connection during deployment. Let’s set you up with the tools to stay strong—together.
