Ep. 69: Deployment Series- How to Prepare for Reintegration and Why You Need To


Listen Later

It's easy to get caught in the magic of planning for homecoming, almost creating this fairy tale in our heads of how great it will be. I don't care how many deployments you have done, this adjustment period of reintegration can be COMPLICATED. There are not enough people talking about HOW to deepen your marriage with someone you haven’t seen or talked to in months and WHAT the appropriate preparation is. Let’s dive into this episode, where I’ll help you set realistic expectations so it can go smoothly for you.


I’m exploring:

  • Military 101 - O.H.A - What this stands for and when you can use it
  • Why you will have to learn how to live together again and my best tips for this
  • How our expectations might not match the reality of what will happen
  • The TOP questions you can start asking your spouse in the weeks leading up to their arrival
  • The story of our first reintegration and how it was NOT what I expected at all
  • My BEST tip that can help you avoid this type of fight altogether
  • Ideas for reintegration with kids
  • And so much more!
