Milspouse Matters Episode 32 with Jen McDonald, sharing deployment resources.
Welcome to Episode 32 where I’m discussing some of my favorite deployment resources!
This week’s episode is all about deployment resources and support! Whether you’re facing your first deployment as a military spouse or a recent rapid deployment, I’m hoping you’ll find some new ideas and support here. I’m sharing some of my favorites, as well as tips and deployment resources from some of my listeners.
Wherever in the world this finds you, please know that my heart is with you as you face deployment, and I hope you can hang in there through this challenging time.
In the words from Winnie the Pooh:
“Promise me you’ll always remember: you’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
