1.I Will Feel Empowered If I Can Get Through This - a podcast by Beck Rayner

"After the first deployment, I was left believing I couldn't do it ever again.

I really believed I couldn't survive another one. By the time this second deployment came up, I haven't wanted to do it but a part of me was like you know what, If I can get through this one and prove to myself I can do it, then I will have built some resilience and that's all I want.

I will feel empowered from that."

 

In Episode 1 of Military Wife Life- The Podcast, I talk to trained art teacher, beach lover, plant obsessed, chai latte addict Natalie about the highs and lows of military life.

Natalie has experienced separation, multiple deployments, surprise pregnancies, mental health struggles and so much more in the 15+ years she has been a Navy Spouse.

So make yourself a hot cuppa, coffee or hey, pour yourself a glass of wine (no judgment here) and get listening.
