Lauren, MEO of Foster Lane Living, grew up loving cozy; it was even her first word. Throughout her journey as a military spouse and entrepreneur, she's really developed a deep understanding and appreciation for allowing cozy into her business. This episode is going to fill your coffee cup with appreciation and passion for what you do and why you do it, and the confidence that no matter what you did today, it was enough.

In this episode, Lauren Foster and I discuss:

- Her journey from dreaming of becoming an astronaut to pivoting her blog to a candle company, and why she feels so called for this life.
- The power of defining your own success, and why Lauren believes you can achieve a level of balance between business and personal life.
- Pivoting and believing in your dreams, no matter how many times you adapt that dream.
- The value in investing in all aspects of things you love and are passionate about; not just investing in your business.

Have you ever been curious about what you, as the military spouse, can do for your service member in terms of helping them through their mental health journey? Keith, veteran-turned-realtor and podcast host of the veteran podcast: Battle Buddy Podcast, shares his own mental health journey and how we can help as the spouse, in this hostile culture around PTSD and mental health.

In this episode, Keith and I discuss:
- Keith's own military journey, from getting recruited, to first deployments and Afghanistan prison camps, and more.
- The Battle Buddy Podcast; how it helped Keith open his eyes to his own mental health concerns and why it's important to just START if you're passionate about it.

- How the spouse can help; and why we are also kind of fighting an uphill battle.

99. When it comes to being a military spouse, there's this secret "rule" that you have to be a certain way- you have to have a patriotic decorated home, you have to have traveled all over the world and live on base, gone through x number of deployments... but the truth is, no one feels like they've succeeded at being "that spouse" because the rule is a lie. Wendy, owner of Charliemadison Originals, comes to us after her husband's service and talks to us in both proud confidence and understanding, that the mold is a lie, and we are all "fitting the mold" by being uniquely US.

We talk about:
- The power in being bold enough to claim "I am enough"
- The struggles she faced with a corporate career in science her whole military spouse journey
- Why community over competition is so important to her and should be to other spouses
- How she's managed to succeed through connection and support from her family and network.

95. As a military spouse it can feel daunting to know that if you start a business in one state, you may have to start all over again in another given 2-3 years and a PCS. Dr. Brooke Herbert, blogger, milspouse,  and chiropractor,  is on the podcast tonight discussing what it's like starting over... and over... and over... with her business. She's no stranger to this act, and has sound advice on how to make it work and the mental push to believe in the beauty of starting over.

Dr. Brooke Herbert, D.C. earned her Doctorate of Chiropractic and Masters of Science in Sports Science and Rehabilitation from Logan University in St. Louis, Missouri in 2016.She believes that allowing people to live their lives to the fullest potential is what drew her to Chiropractic many years ago. As a mom to three young children and an active duty military spouse, she understands the struggles that come with balancing motherhood, military life and a career. This is why she began her mission to provide quality, affordable chiropractic care for military families wherever the military takes her family. Her goal is to take the financial stressors out of holistic healthcare for you and your family to live a healthy, happy life.

Tonight she shares her story; from meeting her spouse on a dating app to resenting him and the military life, to finding peace and joy in starting over!

97. When we think about our work day, the last thing we think about is what we ate for lunch. In fact, when you ask your spouse about their day, normally it's not even brought up at all. But what if I told you that what, and when, you eat food each day could be impacting your business? Would you care about what you ate then? Mary-Catherine,  MPH RD LDN is on the podcast today sharing just that; how to fuel your body for success so you can be the best entrepreneur you can be.

This is NOT your average podcast episode about nutrition; we don't talk about diets or how to lose weight at all. Instead, we are talking about ways to get more focused, work more intentionally and less hours, and even how to move your body joyfully.

In this episode, Mary-Catherine and I discuss:
- Substitutes for caffeine you probably didn't even know were options.
- How to know which foods to each without reading food labels at the grocery store.
- The power of scheduling your meals - and why I have been scheduling my lunch meals since we recorded this episode!
- Her perfect snack formula to get you over that evening energy slump.
- Joyful movement; why exercise doesn't have to be a chore or obligation.
