    Jul 22 2025

    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.

    In this episode, I’m chatting with Dr. Julia Priftis about one of the most important challenges military families face: building strong, healthy relationships with our kids amid all the moves, deployments, and uncertainty.

    If you’re a military spouse wondering how to help your children feel secure, connected, and resilient despite the unique challenges of this lifestyle, this conversation is for you.

    We dive into:

    • Simple, effective ways to keep communication open and honest with your kids

  • 246. Keeping Love Alive in Military Life with Dr. Lindsay Cavanaugh
    Jul 15 2025

    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

  • 245. Is it a House or a Home?
    Jul 8 2025

    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

    That’s why I’m so excited to welcome Dr. Sharita Knobloch, military spouse, researcher, and faith leader, to the show. Together, we explore the intersection of religion, spirituality, and military spouse mental health, and why nurturing your inner life is just as important as caring for your body or mind.

    • Why spiritual health is often overlooked but deeply impactful
    • How faith and spirituality support mental and emotional resilience
    • What Dr. Sharita’s research reveals about the role of spiritual practices in milspouse well-being
    • Practical ways to nurture your spiritual life, wherever you are in your journey

  • 241. Permission to Pause as a Military Spouse with Chrissie Kenaston
    Jun 10 2025

    This summer, we're hitting reset together with the Milspouse Summer Reset Series — a special collection of episodes designed to help you make small but powerful shifts that can lead to major transformation in your life.

    Each week, we're diving into one of the 10 focus areas of the Clarity Compass, a free life assessment tool and your go-to resource for creating a more fulfilling, purpose-fueled life.

    In this episode, we’re starting with the foundation: rest.

    I’m joined by military spouse, entrepreneur, author, and mom of three, Chrissie Kenaston, for a real and refreshing conversation about what rest actually looks like in the middle of military life, motherhood, and everything in between.

    We’re unpacking what it means to build a life of more meaning and less overwhelm — not by doing more, but by giving yourself permission to pause.

    If you’ve been feeling exhausted, like you’re always “on,” or stuck in hustle mode, this episode will remind you that rest isn’t just allowed — it’s essential.

    Better Together,

    Christine
