Welcome to Milspouse Matters, the podcast dedicated to encouraging military spouses!

I’m your host Jen McDonald, and I was a military spouse for 30 years until my husband’s retirement. We lived all around the world, raised four kids, and dealt with all the challenges and adventures of military life, just like you! I’m also the author of two books for military spouses. Over the years, I came to believe that we military spouses are tough, but we're only stronger together. Whether you’re a new or more seasoned spouse…Whatever life is throwing your way?  Let’s talk about it!

There Is Strength in the Waiting - Ep. 57

Jan 25, 2021

On this episode, I’m giving you an update of what’s been going on (fun things like a site relaunch, not so fun things like having COVID--ugh).

During this past hard year that was 2020, we’ve all become more familiar with waiting. I hear from so many of you--you’re waiting for your loved one at boot camp, you’re counting down the days to the end of deployment, you’re waiting for PCS orders that are on hold, or you just arrived somewhere and you’re the new person...and you’re longing for normalcy so you can connect with others and form a community again. Wait, wait, wait…

Waiting can seem like a waste of time or that we’re doing nothing, but I want to remind you there is strength in the waiting. Join me as I discuss some lessons learned in the waiting.
