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!

This week, we're talking about military marriage!

Keeping your marriage healthy is a challenge. Add in the stresses of military life, and it can be even more difficult!

Whether you're a newlywed or have been married a long time, it's always a good time to work on your relationship.

While my only "expertise" is 30+ years of marriage, I'm sharing a few tips I've learned. We'll talk about some practical tips for appreciating each other, communicating, and staying connected through separations and deployments. 

Some other experienced spouses add their tips for a strong marriage, along with suggested resources.
