Milspouse Matters Episode 66
On this episode, I’m doing a listener Q & A!
Just a reminder, you can send questions to me on the Milspouse Matters Instagram or email me for possible inclusion in the next round of listener Q & A!
Today, we’re covering questions like:
What are your thoughts on planning weddings in the military? Or just trying to plan anything as a milspouse with this unpredictable lifestyle? (or is it not really as unpredictable as it seems)
How and when should you apply for military base housing?
Sometimes the areas of OPSEC and security measures seem to be approached differently by a lot of military spouse influencers. I guess I’m just wondering what good practices would be. Also, any suggestions for a wife who can’t really talk to her husband about work because he’s Intel?
Finding military spouse connections in Washington, D.C.
Advice for making friends in big cities when you don’t live on base and aren’t established yet.
Tips on helping your marriage during a tough deployment.
Homeschooling military kids.
