Milspouse Matters Episode 49 with Jen McDonald
On this bonus episode, I’m sharing a little bit of the story behind Milspouse Matters, why I started it, and my heart about it all.
I also discuss who or what you’re allowing to speak into your life and who you’re looking to for guidance in your military spouse journey! Whether it’s in real life or on social media, is what you’re hearing uplifting and positive? Is it realistic? Is it putting pressure on you that you don’t need?
A reminder: the loudest voices, whether on social media or in real life, are not always the most accurate or wise sources. I want to remind you that if you’re just managing to keep things together in your home, in your marriage, taking care of your kids…that’s enough. In fact, it’s more than enough! It’s huge.

If this podcast encourages you, I would so appreciate if if you left a 5-star rating and review!
