Married After Kids

Ep. 84: From the Trenches of Deployment


Listen Later

Do you ever wonder how it’s possible to have a strong marriage while your partner is deployed?


In this episode, I share the toughest parts of my husband’s current deployment, similarities and differences between past deployments, how I got through it all, and what I will change next time. 


Tune in to hear:

  • Military 101: What is POM leave (Prior/Post Overseas Movement) and how it works
  • What to do when you and your partner feel “against” each other when prioritizing different things (and how to get on the same page)
  • The game-changer when it comes to making compromises and elevating your mindset
  • A common challenge we all face as military spouses (even those of us who have worked on it for years, and continue to work on it today)
  • How to make the most out of your (limited) calls together, especially when you are feeling frustrated or upset
  • How to stay on the same team when your spouse is gone
