The Running Spouse
I could start with “What is a military spouse?” but I would soon be running (no pun intended) out of space. A military spouse must adapt to changing schedules and develop creative ways of doing things. There will be times when one parent must become both parents. They will have to say the following, “Be careful, and I will miss you, and I love you.”
Finding Success as a Remote Worker
Over the last two years, some of the most frequent comments I hear from clients are: “I really want a remote job,” or “I think remote work is the best option for my career.” Along with many other professionals around the world, my work environment changed drastically in March of 2020.

Work, family, sports practices, being at home with small children, sick children and the list goes on and on. This can be especially exhausting when one partner is away training or deployed and “regular stuff” is left to be taken care of day in and day out. The days feel long and, at times, even like there is no end in sight.
Mission Ready and Confident in your Preventive Health
Taking a proactive role in one’s own health is a central part of the wellness routine for many. It is part of the “growing up” experience for children in the United States, and grown-ups consider it a key factor in their “adulting” practice. It can save lives, eradicate certain diseases, and improve overall health of the surrounding communities.
