In this episode of More Than a Milspouse, I’m chatting with Jennifer Barnhill, whose new book releases next week. Jen and I dive into the realities of military life and explore the incredible power of sharing military family stories.

We talk about:

 * The changing landscape of military spouse volunteerism
 * Leaning into your unique skills—even when your career path needs to pivot
 * How telling our stories can elevate the voices of military families and create real change

This conversation is such a timely reminder that our experiences matter and that when we share them, we not only connect with others but also help people outside the military community understand our lives and needs.

Better Together,
Christine

251. My Biggest Takeaways From PCS 2025

Welcome back to the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — where we’re exploring how to live with more meaning and less overwhelm using the Clarity Compass as our guide. Over the past nine episodes, we’ve talked about caring for yourself and building strong relationships. But there’s one final — and foundational — focus area we’re digging into this week: your purpose.

Living with purpose isn’t about waiting for the perfect time or location. It’s about discovering what matters to you, aligning your choices with your values, and making the most of the season you’re in. And to help us explore how to do just that, I’m thrilled to welcome military spouse, speaker, and Discovering Your Spark creator Brittany Boccher to the podcast.

In this inspiring and honest conversation, Brittany shares her own journey from stuck and frustrated to fulfilled and purpose-fueled — and how she’s helping thousands of other military spouses do the same.

249. "You're Not Bad With Money. You Just Need a New Mindset" with Janine Mix

Welcome back to the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — where we’re taking intentional steps to reset your life one focus area at a time using the Clarity Compass, our free self-assessment tool designed for military spouses.

This week, we’re diving into one of the most important — and often most challenging — areas of military life: friendships. Making friends as a military spouse isn’t always easy, especially when you’re constantly moving, solo parenting, or just plain exhausted. But authentic community matters, and it is possible.

In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by military missionary, author, and community builder Megan B. Brown. Megan shares her personal story of learning to drop the mask, embrace her true self, and build deep, meaningful connections — even in a lifestyle that often feels isolating.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

 * Why authentic friendships are built, not found
 * How masking and perfectionism can get in the way of real connection
 * What to look for when building a community that actually supports you

Don’t forget to download your free Milspouse Friendship Guide  [http://milspousemastermind.com/connection]for practical tips on overcoming awkward conversations and building better connections: milspousemastermind.com/connection

Welcome back to the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — a special collection of episodes designed to help you make small, intentional shifts that lead to big transformation. Each week, we’re digging into one of the 10 key focus areas from the Clarity Compass, a free life assessment tool available inside the Milspouse Transformation Guide.

This week, we’re talking about a vital, but often strained, part of military life: your relationship with your spouse or significant other.

To help us navigate this conversation, I’m thrilled to welcome back Dr. Lindsay Cavanagh — military spouse, psychologist, marriage coach, and host of the Married After Kids podcast. Our first conversation remains one of the most downloaded episodes of the show, and for good reason. Dr. Lindsay gets it — the deployments, the stress, the missed moments — and she brings both compassion and clarity to the realities of military marriage.

Together, we’re diving into how to keep your relationship strong, connected, and life-giving, even when military life makes it anything but easy.

Better Together,

Christine

246. Keeping Love Alive in Military Life with Dr. Lindsay Cavanaugh

Welcome back to the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — where we’re diving into small, strategic shifts that help military spouses trade overwhelm for meaning and create a life that truly excites them.

Each week, we’re exploring one of the 10 focus areas of the Clarity Compass, a free life assessment tool included in the Milspouse Transformation Guide. These conversations are designed to help you reset your rhythm and realign with what matters most, while navigating the uncertainty of military life.

But this episode? It’s a little different.

I’m currently moving into my eighth home in ten years. So this week’s topic hits close to home – literally. We’re exploring what it means to create a sense of home in the middle of so much movement, transition, and uncertainty.

Because it’s not just about the walls around us — it’s about how we feel inside them.

Whether you're unpacking in a new duty station or wrestling with feeling unsettled in your current space, this episode invites you to reflect on what home truly means to you, and how to cultivate it no matter where the military sends you next.

Better Together,

Christine

The MilSpouse Mastermind Show is here to empower you to GET UNSTUCK, CRAFT A LIFE WITH PURPOSE, and show you that YOU DON’T HAVE TO WAIT FOR TOMORROW TO CHASE YOUR DREAMS. In this podcast, we dig into all things military spouse life, from the mind and growth work that has to happen in order for you to completely get unstuck and feel fulfilled every single day – YES, IT’S POSSIBLE – to practically navigating the unpredictability of military life. Through honest conversations and expert interviews, we’ll help you set goals, combat stress and anxiety, incorporate self-care as a military spouse, boost your mental and emotional health, and prioritize what matters most, so that you can pursue your life, career and business dreams (with more joy and less hustle and overwhelm as a military family). 👋 Hi, I’m Christine, a military wife of over ten years, marketing strategist, mom of three, and coffee connoisseur. I am all-too-familiar with the challenges that come with frequent moves, deployments, TDYs and trying to balance military life with your own dreams and passions. After four moves and three babies in four years, I became an accidental stay at home mom. I began a journey to find myself again and figure out how to love the life I was actually living, rather than the one I had imagined for myself. If there’s one thing I want you to know, it’s this: You were made for more! More than the managing of schedules, keeping up with kiddos and holding down the home front. YOU have something uniquely valuable to offer, and when you pursue the things that light your heart on fire, you trade frustration for FULFILLMENT and isolation for IDENTITY, CONNECTION, and a life of IMPACT. I’m here to help you thrive as a military spouse, get clarity on what fuels and fills you, and give you practical tools and strategies to craft a life of MEANING and PURPOSE today. Whether you are an Army spouse, an Air Force spouse, a Marine spouse, a Navy spouse, Coast Guard spouse, or a Space Force spouse, this is the podcast for you! Friend, it’s time to reclaim your life and dreams and discover who you are meant to be because together we can change the world! LET’S DO IT!
