In this week's podcast episode, I talk to spouse Amanda about why she doesn't allow her Army Husbands job to control her life.
Amanda and I also talk about;
- Not really knowing, in the beginning, what it meant to be an Army spouse
- Why she was hesitant to even acknowledge she was a spouse
- Moving in together and experiencing a deployment 6 months into the relationship
- A horrible experience with another Army wife and how it impacted her forming a support network
- Being MWDU for the majority of their relationship and why it works for their family
- 3 kids and 6 deployments and how she juggles being solo, working and family life alone
- Why going back to work fulltime after her 3rd baby just wasn't going to work
- The physical toll juggling it all had on her and the positive changes she made
- Starting her own online business to allow her to slow down while continuing her career
