2021-03-0317 minThe Military Wives Top FivesConnecting with your spouse during a PCS.Moving is one of the top 3 most stressful events in life with only death of a loved one and divorce being higher.

2021-02-1724 minThe Military Wives Top FivesWho is the Dependable Dependa?The Dependable Dependa was created by Sarah, as a way to encourage spouses that it is okay to be “just” a milso. Somewhere along the way the honor of being a military spouse who allows the military t0 pack up their lives every 2-3 years, who rebuilds a home for their family & keeps the ball rolling while their spouse is away, has been negatively tainted. No longer are spouses respected and applauded for the hard work they put forth, but they are oftentimes called names, discouraged and put down because they choose to follow their soldier wherever they go.
