You are more than a milspouse. Absolutely. But the reality is that, for many of us, being a military spouse becomes a large part of our identity. And the longer that our spouse serves, the more this is true. There’s a shared culture, experience, language, and understanding that comes with living the military lifestyle.  

So what happens when your spouse reaches the end of their service? What does that mean for you and for your identity?

That’s the question I explore with Jen McDonald. Jen is an award-winning author and podcaster. She’s the author of the book, You Are Not Alone: Encouragement for the Heart of a Military Spouse, and Milspouse Matters: Sharing Strength Through Our Stories, which was released in October 2023. Jen is the host of the Milspouse Matters podcast and The Christian Milspouse podcast, with a mission to strengthen and encourage military spouses. 

Better Together,

Christine
