A New Life in Recruiting
We’ve been deep into the recruiting world for a few months now, and so far, this transition has proved to be one of the most challenging of the many years we’ve lived in the military world. Not only has the transition back into a mostly civilian setting presented a number of difficulties, add in a global health crisis and things seem to find a way to get intense.
5 Stress Relief Ideas: Milspouse Approved
I sat on my back porch with my toes in the sun. I was tired, maybe feeling some stress. My kids had given me grief all day long. The dishes were undone. The house a bit of a mess. I had a to-do list a mile long for my clients and a board meeting to prepare for that evening.

To which my husband replied, “I don’t think you remember what it was like to not be the salty ol’ vet.”

I started regularly using LinkedIn five years ago, and each one of my last three jobs (and my current favorite) were connected to LinkedIn in some way. If you do not have a LinkedIn profile, or if it isn’t updated and polished, you are missing out on key strategic measures that could help you.
You Are Wonderful
As humans, we are often our toughest critics. We judge ourselves a bit too harshly when in comes to personal endeavors, but why? Why are we so harsh on ourselves? When was the last time someone told you that you are wonderful?
