AWTR Show #895: The Astronaut’s Wife
Do you ever feel like a supporting character in this milspouse life? One of the many life lessons contained in the book, The Astronaut’s Wife, is that you are essential to the mission’s success. Embrace the fact that you are not a side story and jump in with both feet.
First things first – stop trying to do it all by yourself. You have to build your community and that means putting yourself out there and being vulnerable. Find people who you can be your authentic self around. What you are doing is important, even if you don’t get paid for it or society minimizes it.
