Always a good time when I get to talk with Jason. He's an interesting individual and one of my favorite guys to talk about life with because he gets it. It's hard to have some conversations with people that aren't military spouses, and Jason has been on both sides of the coin. As a Spouse and a Service Member so he understands this life better than most. 

Intro Song: Guitarista by Mr. Smith

First Video Podcast I've done on Spotify!!

Discussing PCS tips and tricks since the DoD is rapidly approaching what we call "PCS season". The Air Force moves the majority of its Service Members during the summer months and into the early fall. With that many people about to PCS I wanted to give a few ideas for people that haven't PCS'd before, or maybe haven't done it often.

Discussing the importance of talking to your children when they are navigating difficult emotions. Understanding there are resources available for them, and you. Being bold enough to admit when your mental health is not as good as you would like for it to be and seeking help. 

A wonderful resource is www.militaryonesource.com 

I decided to combine the two podcast I was recording into one. My joy of sharing information and having conversations with people via Podcast started with The Professional Dependa and that is where we are going to stay. 

Going over some of the direction of the podcast moving forward.
