Empowering women through my personal stories is how I want to give back to the world. Raising kids, maneuvering life, and learning who you are.

Best Type of Plants For Plant Killers
I know some of you out there are just like my mom—a plant killer. What I mean by a plant killer is that it seems like all the plants come to your house to die. It seems like the moment my mom brings a plant to the house. It says, “I’m done living.” She can’t keep a plant alive for even an hour. The plant comes to our home, then it just dies. Don’t ask my mom to plant sit. You’ll come back, and your plant will be dead. I love my mom dearly, but she can’t keep a plant alive. We have an ongoing joke in our house about…

Modern Day Rosie – How Our Military Spouse Community Can Inspire Our Nation During COVID-19
One of the things I have always loved about our military community has been the “givers.” They’ve been there. At every duty station. In every base housing neighborhood. And at our base chapel all along. The neighbor across the street that you could ask for an egg or some milk when you forgot to purchase something at the commissary (or were trying to stretch things until the next payday).

Military Spouses Have A Unique Voice
In the spring of 1999, I walked into a hangar at Naval Station Great Lakes in Illinois and adjusted my eyes to the sea of white, as I searched for one particular sailor. Our Navy journey began that day. It took us to Charleston, South Carolina; to New Jersey where we lost friends on September 11th and my spouse unexpectedly deployed to the Persian Gulf; to Nebraska, Berkeley, Pensacola, and Oklahoma; and finally to Maryland, where he completed Test Pilot School and is now finishing up his final tour with the Navy before he retires. Along the way we acquired three kids, a couple of dogs, dozens of friends who…

I Realized The Benefits Of Lingerie
I was facing a dilemma that I am sure most spouses have encountered before. What do I buy for my husband for his birthday? For his last two or three birthdays, I have struggled with this decision. My husband is a very simple guy, who pretty much wears the same clothes year after year, and only seems to like running sneakers and Garmin watches. He needs to try all running sneakers on before actually making a purchase, so that was out. As for a Garmin watch, I just could not afford it. So running out of options I decided to get creative and do something I had not done since…
