Being a milspouse and keeping up with a career can feel impossible. That’s where Milspouse entrepreneurship comes in. If you create your own company, then you could potentially keep the same job throughout your spouse’s military career. And remember, there will always be a version 2.0, so it’s more important to get started than to be perfect.

Can you imagine graduating from West Point right as the Korean War started and then talking your way into getting orders to Korea?

A 1950 West Point graduate, Paul Gorman entered the officer ranks during the inaugural years of the Cold War. Like many of his classmates, Gorman served on the frontlines in Korea and Vietnam.

AWTR Show #907: Arm Me Up Campaign
As military spouses, we understand what it’s like to have to search for a job every couple of years. PCSing is stressful enough, without throwing in a career search at the same time. That’s where the Arm Me Up Career Campaign comes in.

Even if you happen to be in a season where you actually aren’t looking for a job – it’s always best to stay workforce ready and there are classes that can help. The Arm Me Up Career Campaign is run by Military Spouse Jobs and serves all branches, family members, caregivers, active, or retired.
