(Formerly The Milspouse Mastermind Show). The go to podcast for military spouses who want to live with more meaning and less overwhelm! Have you ever felt stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, frustrated or unfulfilled as a military spouse? Are you tired of putting your own dreams, goals and plans on hold; waiting for some future season to build a life you love? Do you sometimes feel like you’ve lost sight of who you are and what you have to offer? More Than a Milspouse 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 overwhelm as a military family). 👋 Hi, I’m Christine, a seasoned military spouse, 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!

Welcome to More Than A Milspouse, (formerly The Milspouse Mastermind Show), the podcast for military spouses who want to live with MORE meaning and LESS overwhelm.
It’s the time of year, often known in military circles as PCS season. Yes, military families PCS throughout the year. But summer is a popular time for a permanent change of station (PCS), especially if you have school-aged kids.
I’ve lived in seven houses in the last 10 years, and am currently navigating my third OCONUS PCS (overseas move) in four years. One might think that I should be an expert on moving by now, but I’m not. And in this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain to talk about why this PCS has challenged me in brand new ways (and yes, I’ve already cried). Want to hear all the juicy details? Then grab a cup of coffee and come join me for story time.
Better Together,
Christine

I’ve been a military spouse for almost 15 years. And in that time, I’ve seen a lot of evolution in what it means to be a military spouse, what opportunities are available for military spouses, and how military spouses are viewed. In some ways, the change has been really good. And in some ways, the change is not all for the better.
But my experience as a military spouse is just a drop in the bucket compared to the history of what it means to be a military spouse in the last 100 years.
Today’s conversation is definitely one you don’t want to miss! I sit down with Corie Weathers to discuss her new book, Military Culture Shift: The Impact of War, Money, and Generational Perspective on Morale, Retention and Leadership.
We discuss how military culture has shifted over the decades, what that means for military spouses, and what you and I can do to continue to shift the culture in a positive direction for the future.
Better Together,
Christine

Welcome to the newly renamed More Than a Milspouse Podcast and the Unlocking Identity Series. This week I’m releasing daily bite-sized episodes to help you answer the question, "Who am I, really?"
On day one, we discussed why so many military spouses struggle with identity and purpose, and how that struggle impacts our health and well-being. On day two, we discussed three actions you can take begin the journey to unlock your true identity. On day three, we unpacked the three elements of purpose, and explored how to figure out what matters most to you. And on day four, we talked about the #1 question to ask on the quest to unlock your identity.
Today, we’re going to tie a bow on unlocking identity and talk about how we truly figure out who we are, what we want, and what our purpose is, so that we can ultimately trade our frustration with life for fulfillment as a military spouse, which is what this podcast and community exists to do.
Better Together,
Christine

Welcome to More Than A Milspouse, the podcast for military spouses who want to live with MORE meaning and LESS overwhelm.
After three years of producing content for the Milspouse Mastermind Show, I wanted a title for the podcast that better reflected what this show is about.
More Than A Milspouse is about helping you get unstuck, unlock your purpose and potential, and create a life you’re excited about as a military spouse.
No more going through the motions, feeling lost in the military lifestyle, and waiting for some future season to pursue your dreams. You have something to offer the world, my friend. It’s time to discover who you are meant to be. Because together, we can change the world.
Better Together,
Christine

Is it possible to live full of joy as a military spouse? If so, how do we do it? And does it look the same for each person?
Those are the questions we unpack in this week’s episode. I chat with The Joy Weaver, Aj Smit. As a fellow military spouse, she absolutely understands this lifestyle. In this conversation, we discuss what it means to live an embodied life, to tap into joy, and the importance of regulating your nervous system. Plus, you’ll get to listen in as she coaches me through her process to help me tap into embodied joy in my life. If you are struggling to walk in joy in your current season of life, don’t miss this episode.
Better Together,
Christine
