If you're looking for the secret ingredient to overcome the challenges and loneliness of military life, this episode is for you. Building resiliency is key as a military spouse to identifying your needs, finding your community, and tapping into needed available resources.
Joining me in this episode is Manda McVey, a resilience and wellness coach and community building expert. We share ways to feel more included and understood in your community, as well as what you can do when loneliness and unhappiness creep in (especially when moving somewhere new). Don’t miss out on hearing Manda’s inspiring stories as a military spouse and how she makes this lifestyle work for her when challenges arise.
In this episode, you will hear:
-
The difficulties of finding your community as a “late career” spouse
-
Manda’s ultimate dream of sharing resources with other military spouses
-
What she recommends for building community, no matter how long or little you are in any installation
-
Our challenge to you if you feel like you already have enough friends and don’t need any more
-
What to expect when moving somewhere new (and what can motivate you to get connected!)
