Hi Friend!

I'm Christine

Military Spouse. Mom of Littles. Marketing Strategist. Coffee Connoisseur. Podcaster. 

 I’d love to make you a cup of coffee and get to know you a little better. Because I’m passionate about empowering military spouses to recognize their worth, reclaim their life and dreams, and pursue a life of impact.

Fulfillment Comes From Contributing To Something Greater Than Yourself

I’ve been a military spouse for over a decade now and if there’s one thing I know, it’s that life as a military spouse isn’t always easy.

We follow our loved ones to that next duty assignment and hold down the homefront when they are gone. We sacrifice our dreams and sometimes put our lives on hold.   

We struggle with stress, with our self-worth, with our response to circumstances beyond our control. We sometimes think, “If only my life looked like…”

We feel stuck and unfulfilled. We long to live a life we love.

I’m here to tell you:

    • Pursuing happiness is not the answer
    • The perfect job is not the answer
    • The forever home is not the answer

The answer is found in WHO YOU WANT TO BE and THE IMPACT YOU WANT TO MAKE.

My Story

me and my littles

Marrying someone in the military wasn't my plan. Neither was becoming a stay-at-home mom.

In my early 20s I had grand plans of building a successful marketing career. But then I met my husband, who was in the military. And my budding career quickly turned into an assortment of loosely-related jobs and entrepreneurial efforts. After four moves and three babies in four years, I became an accidental stay-at-home mama. 

Although I had gotten really good at unboxing and boxing up our life quickly, I had lost sight of who I was outside of a military spouse and mama. I started to doubt myself and what I had to offer.

I was caught in the chaos of life with littles. And as much I wanted to be an amazing and supportive military wife and mom, I also wanted to find myself outside of those labels. I felt stuck and unfulfilled. I longed for something more. Heck, some days I just longed for adult conversation. 

The answer wasn't a new job or professional title. It was reframing my mindset.

I wanted to contribute monetarily, but I desperately craved the flexibility that a full-time job didn’t offer. To be honest, I was tired of job hunting. Of starting over. Of trying to find reliable childcare. I longed to live a life of meaning and purpose, regardless of my ever-changing circumstances.

I set out to find myself again and figure out how I could use my passions, skills and experiences to help others…in a sustainable way that brought more JOY and less OVERWHELM to myself, my family and those around me.

I realized that the answer was not in a better job situation or finding the perfect work-life balance. I was focused on what I should DO, when I should have been focusing on who I wanted to BE and the impact I wanted to have in the world. 

 

A new dream in my heart.

I started blogging about my journey and I quickly realized that I wasn’t alone in my struggles. 

A new dream began to form in my heart – a dream to create a space of encouragement, inspiration and belonging. A space for military spouses to dream, explore and discover how to thrive and find greater purpose, joy and impact.

MilSpouse Mastermind is the evolution of that dream. 

My hope is that as you step into your story and pursue a life of impact, you will find fulfillment, joy, confidence, belonging and ultimately become the WORLD-CHANGING MILSPOUSE you were meant to be.
