(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!

What happens when military life gets in the way of your dreams?
That’s what happened to Morgan Scully. From a young age Morgan knew she wanted to be in the profession of helping and healing. She graduated with a BS in psychology, and a MA in counseling, with a goal of entering the mental health profession. But moving with the military made starting her own practice challenging.
She tried everything from teaching school, to planning travel, to getting involved with an MLM company. But she always knew she was meant for more and that she that had a passion for mental health.
In this episode we talk about Morgan’s journey, what she’s learned along the way, and how she was finally able to find a way to combine her background and passion for mental health, with her love and respect of animals, and step into a purpose that is truly a dream come true.
We unpack:
- How getting hung up on the “how” kept Morgan feeling stuck
- Her biggest learning curve
- What a gestalt therapist actually does
- The transformations that come from choosing to invest in your health and wholeness
- How to step into that feeling of knowing that you are exactly where you need to be
I can’t wait to share this conversation with you!
Better Together,
Christine

Sometimes it feels like there is never enough time during the day.
Especially if you have littles at home, you are working full time, or you are currently solo parenting, it can feel like every hour of the day is spoken for. Amiright??
And while you would absolutely love to find time for yourself, or to actually start that business, or pursue that goal, it just never seems to happen. I totally get this because I’ve been there. Heck, some days I’m still there.
But when I think back to what I’ve learned in the last six years of working from home and navigating military life, there are 6 time management hacks that have been really helpful to me as a work from home military spouse. Want to know what they are? Then let’s chat about it!

I did a thing, friends. And I couldn’t wait to share about it with you.
So today’s special bonus episode is dedicated to helping you remember that you can do go after a big dream…even when circumstances keep getting in the way.
I share about the dream I had more than a decade ago and why it almost just stayed a dream.
- All of the obstacles that got in my way
- Why I was tempted to give up.
- Why I kept going.
- What it felt like to accomplish the dream.
- And the four things that will help you keep going when the going gets tough.
I hope this blesses you!
Better Together,
Christine

“You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” – C.S. Lewis
Perhaps you find yourself feeling a little disappointed with the way your life looks. You aren't living the ambitious life you thought you would. And you're feeling restless and unfulfilled. You might even believe it's too late for you to create a life that truly lights you up.
This episode is all about inspiring you to start dreaming again, and to imagine what is possible for you and your future.
Today's conversation is with Marty Strong, a retired Navy SEAL, founder of multiple businesses, and a 10-time author. We discuss:
- What it was like to pivot to a new career after leaving military service
- What it took to build a new business
- The skills he learned as a Navy SEAL that truly helped him succeed in business
- How to play to your strengths and compensate for your weaknesses
- Why so many of us struggle to create a vision for our lives (and what to do about it)
Marty provides a framework for figuring out what's possible for you in your life, regardless of where you find yourself today.
Better Together,
Christine

Have you ever thought to yourself, “I could never do that. That's not something I'm naturally good at. That's not my skill set. That's not possible for me. I'm not smart enough, talented enough, fill-in-the-blank enough.”
Those thoughts stem from a belief or perception of what is and is not possible for you, and what you believe you are capable of achieving.
The beliefs we hold dramatically influence how we live our lives. They can help us achieve our biggest goals and dreams; or they can keep us stuck, too afraid of failure to take action.
The good news is that we have the power to change our thoughts, beliefs and mindsets. So today we are talking about one extremely powerful mindset that will dramatically influence your success in life. Find out what it is, and how to cultivate it in your life.
Better Together,
Christine

Have you ever felt like you weren’t getting enough quality sleep? You know sleep is important. And yet often, as a military spouse, it's the easiest thing to let slide when life gets chaotic. Perhaps your spouse is gone. and your kids seem to need you. all.day.long. (and night). Perhaps the only time you have to yourself is those precious hours after work or done or the kids have gone to bed.
If you are ready to wake up, rested, to think more clearly and to feel happy with the energy to show up every day exactly how you want to, then this episode is for you.
I sit down with sleep expert Renee Kindler, a retired military spouse, nurse practitioner, and functional health consultant. She is passionate about helping you optimize your brain and body so you can be more present, show up as the best version of yourself, and live a purpose-fueled life.
Better Together,
Christine
