Join us for a dive into the world of being a Navy Spouse with Ashley. Ashley walks us through her experiences of being married to a Submariner. The challenges that come with constant deployments, short notice missions, and having little to no communication with her spouse for months at a time.
These things can force a person to become incredibly adapt at carrying not only for themselves but for their family as well. It can lead to problems when the spouse is not out on a mission and tries to participate in day to day operations of the home. The issue becomes when the duty station is set up for short notice missions having a parent in and out of the home for weeks to months at a time can cause confusion to other family members. Ashely tells us about they handled this and more during their time in the Navy, and also how they began planning early for her husbands retirement.
Hope you enjoy this weeks episode!
