Being a spouse is a responsibility not to take likely that is why they use the words for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health during wedding ceremonies. Imagine you are separated from your spouse for anywhere between 4 to 8 months a year with parts of that time not having contact, have 2 kids that your spouse will miss some milestones in your kid's lives, you also homeschool the 2 kids, moved 7 times in 12 years, and have to make some really tough important decisions without your spouse being there. Welcome to the life of this military spouse, my friend Jade B. We have a great conversation about her journey in a 2 part episode. Welcome to part 1, I hope you enjoy it.
