- 104. Dear Christine: ”I’m feeling anxious about our upcoming PCS. Will I be able to manage my business?”
You know that you’ll be PCSing in six months. Or you can see that deployment looming on the horizon. And you realize that there is an underlying sense of anxiety you feel. Not just about the unknowns, but about how you are going to manage all the things. And specifically, if you have a work from home business or a goal that you’re working toward, how will this major life change affect it? Will your thing end up on the back burner again? Will you have to put that dream aside like you did during the last move?
Is there a way to still maintain consistency and make progress on your goals in a season of chaos? You better believe it. Here are five things you can do to prepare for and show up consistently through a season of chaos and change.
Better Together,
Christine

24 min - 103. MASTERCLASS REPLAY: The #1 Reason You Still Feel Stuck. How to Practically Pursue A Dream as a Military Spouse Without Burning Yourself Out
Yes, you can dream big as a military spouse. Yes, you can have a plan to avoid the dream killers that threaten to derail your progress. But you’re still unlikely to take action when you feel stressed out and overwhelmed by everything on your plate.
So what needs to change? Is there a way to make this a reality, not just for other military spouses, but for YOU??
In this limited time replay of the Balance Without Burnout Masterclass, we discuss:
- Reasons you still aren’t pursuing your dream
- Why the foundation of stepping into your story is your belief
- What’s really adding to the stress and overwhelm you feel
- How to practically begin to pursue the thing on your heart….without burning yourself out in the process
- And in the process BELIEVE that it is possible to create a life you love WITHOUT changing your external circumstances
I pray this blesses you!
Better Together,
Christine

49 min - 102. Want to Reduce Your Stress and Anxiety? 5 Life-Changing Mindset Shifts For Military Spouses
What if I told you that you could reduce your stress and anxiety simply by adopting five mindset shifts? And no, this is not about “being more positive” or telling ourselves that everything is fine, when it’s not.
Spoiler: That doesn’t actually work.
But the truth is that our thoughts inform our actions and behaviors, and determine our attitudes and beliefs. And over time, those thoughts become habits, and ultimately our identity.
If we reframe the way that we look at our circumstances, and we shift our focus, we can dramatically improve our life. And so today we’re going to talk about five shifts to make in your thinking, that I believe will set you up for success for the rest of your life.
Better Together,
Christine

18 min - BONUS: Are You Ready to Reclaim Your Life and Dreams?
Are you tired of feeling like you’ve put your life on hold…because of deployments, moves, crazy schedules or the uncertainty of what’s next. Do you find yourself waiting until the right time…the right season…the right location to do something for yourself? To feel like you have the time and space to actually take care of your own needs and not just hold down the home front.
Imagine waking up with a sense of purpose and meaning right where you are today. Imagine enjoying the present and knowing that you’re able to show up for your family…and for yourself.
Imagine having clarity about what it is that lights you up, how you can use your unique gifts in your current season, and how to make the most of the time you do have.
It is possible to love your life today. Let me show you how.
Better Together,
Christine

6 min - 101. Celebrating 100, Part 2: Are These Dream-Killers Holding You Back? How to Stop The Self-Sabotage
Welcome to part 2 of our celebrating 100 episodes series. Last time we discussed how it’s possible to dream big as a military spouse. In this episode, we’re going to look at two dream-killers that hold us back and keep us stuck.
It’s possible for these dream killers to delay our progress, derail our momentum, or even keep us from ever getting started. If you’re going to have a dream, you’re going to face these dream killers. So you need a plan to defeat them before they defeat you. And that’s exactly what you’re going to walk away with today.
You are #morethanamilspouse. And it’s time for you to step into your story!

24 min - 100. Celebrating 100, Part 1: Tired of Not Feeling In Control Of Your Life as a Military Spouse? How to Dream BIG About Your Life and Your Future
Welcome to episode 100 of the MilSpouse Mastermind show! To celebrate this week, we’re doing a two-part series on how to dream big as a military spouse.
Too military spouses put their dreams and passions on the back burner. You tell yourself you’ll do the thing on your heart, you’ll live the life you want…in a future season. And you spend your days existing, rather than fully living life.
You feel a general sense of frustration, unhappiness and dissatisfaction with your life…and with the military life in general. You “slog through” and stay in survival mode rather than truly thrive. What if there was a way to change all that?
In part one of the series, we talk about dreaming big as a military spouse. How do you dream big? Is it possible to dream big? And how do you get started? I walk you through my journey of launching the podcast and show you that chasing your dreams is something you can absolutely start today.
You are #morethanamilspouse. Let’s go chase some dreams together.
Better Together,
Christine

43 min - 99. August Real Life Recap: What They Don’t Tell You About Life as a Military Spouse
Welcome to my real life recap series, where each month I show you what it actually looks like to find purpose and chase a dream as a military spouse – the good, the bad and the sometimes ugly. What does it really look like to try and balance it all as a milspouse?
“But you live in paradise.”
In this episode, I’m sharing what life looked like for me in August, post- PCS, as we try and settle into our new home. And I discuss the question of how much weight we place on where we live and what duty station we call home.
Here are my biggest struggles and lessons learned this month, lessons that I hope will help guide you in your journey as a military spouse.
Better Together,
Christine

34 min - 98. Facing a Deployment? Navigating a PCS? Military Life Feel Overwhelming? Stop Saying Everything’s Fine! with Army Guard Spouse Anna Luiken
Most of us struggle to ask for help. We struggle to be honest, both with ourselves and with others, about how we feel and what we need. And it leads us to feel more isolated, overwhelmed and alone.
What if instead of telling ourselves (and others) that we’re doing just fine, holding it together, that we can manage on our own, what if we simply asked for help? What if we were honest about our struggles?
Unfortunately that’s easier said than done.
This week on the podcast, I sit down with military spouse and therapist Anna Luiken to talk about mental health, vulnerability and why we struggle to be honest about our challenges and ask for help as military spouses.We talk about the lies we believe, the expectations we have for ourselves and others, and what we can do to truly be seen known, and understood. We unpack why this matters every day, but especially during difficult seasons of life, such as a deployment or PCS. Make sure you grab a pen and paper and take some notes!Better Together,
Christine

About More Than a Milspouse | mindset, clarity, work-life balance, create a purpose-fueled life as a military spouse, Milspouse Mastermind
From the publisher's feed
(Formerly The Milspouse Mastermind Show). The go to podcast for military spouses who want to live with more meaning and less overwhelm!
Have you ever felt stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, frustrated…
Have you ever felt stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, frustrated…
or unfulfilled as a military spouse?
Are you tired of putting your own dreams, goals and plans on hold; waiting for some future season to build a life you love?
Do you sometimes feel like you’ve lost sight of who you are and what you have to offer?
More Than a Milspouse is here to empower you to GET UNSTUCK, CRAFT A LIFE WITH PURPOSE, and show you that YOU DON’T HAVE TO WAIT FOR TOMORROW TO CHASE YOUR DREAMS.
In this podcast, we dig into all things military spouse life, from the mind and growth work that has to happen in order for you to completely get unstuck and feel fulfilled every single day – YES, IT’S POSSIBLE – to practically navigating the unpredictability of military life.
Through honest conversations and expert interviews, we’ll help you set goals, combat stress and anxiety, incorporate self-care as a military spouse, boost your mental and emotional health, and prioritize what matters most, so that you can pursue your life, career and business dreams (with more joy and less overwhelm as a military family).
👋 Hi, I’m Christine, a seasoned military spouse, marketing strategist, mom of three, and coffee connoisseur. I am all-too-familiar with the challenges that come with frequent moves, deployments, TDYs and trying to balance military life with your own dreams and passions.
After four moves and three babies in four years, I became an accidental stay at home mom. I began a journey to find myself again and figure out how to love the life I was actually living, rather than the one I had imagined for myself.
If there’s one thing I want you to know, it’s this: You were made for more! More than the managing of schedules, keeping up with kiddos and holding down the home front.
YOU have something uniquely valuable to offer, and when you pursue the things that light your heart on fire, you trade frustration for FULFILLMENT and isolation for IDENTITY, CONNECTION, and a life of IMPACT.
I’m here to help you thrive as a military spouse, get clarity on what fuels and fills you, and give you practical tools and strategies to craft a life of MEANING and PURPOSE today.
Whether you are an Army spouse, an Air Force spouse, a Marine spouse, a Navy spouse, Coast Guard spouse, or a Space Force spouse, this is the podcast for you!
Friend, it’s time to reclaim your life and dreams and discover who you are meant to be because together we can change the world!
