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!

Tips for New Military Spouses - Ep. 61

Mar 21, 2021

Are you a new military spouse or know one? This episode is for you! OR maybe you want a refresher yourself. 

I’m reaching back into the vault of my own experiences from nearly 3 decades of life as a military spouse as well of years of writing. I’m also sharing some great tips from friends and listeners (thank you to all who contributed!). 

We’re discussing some hot topics and common questions, such as: 

  • How can I make my military marriage work? 
  • What about relationships between officer and enlisted spouses? 
  • Finding friends and community as a military spouse.
  • Making time for yourself. 

I’m talking about my top tips for thriving in your military spouse life, and I reference quite a few resources and past episodes.
