This or That

I have learned over the years that the best thing to do is to slow down and control the things you can. You can control how you show up, what you say, and what you do.

The Power of A Team

The Power of A Team

Building a team is one of the most important things we can do to navigate military life. You can build a team of your choice. You get to pick who is on your team. You and your husband are a team. God wants to be on your team you just have to let him in. Having a team will help you be stronger and to become the next version of yourself. The best thing about being on a team is that you not only receive help from others but also get to help others along their path, which feels amazing. I would love to be a part of your time and help you love your perfectly imperfect military and everyday life.

Finding Your Purpose with Jessica Rydalch

What is your purpose? I believe we all have a purpose, and we want to find and live that purpose. Sometimes it is unclear what your purpose is.  As military wives, we spend so much of our time serving and taking care of others that it is easy to lose sight of who we are.  In this episode, my friend Jessica Rydalch interviews me about identifying your individual purpose.  We talk about what a purpose is, why it can help you to identify it, and why knowing and living your purpose helps you to feel more in control of your life, and how it can be a guiding force in everything you do. Jesser and I talk about our own purposes and walk you through the exercise I created to help you find your purpose.

In this episode, I share the information I have learned over 18 years as an army wife and as a life coach to recognize when someone is feeling suicidal.  Suicide is something I feel we should all be aware of and do our best to help others when they are feeling down.

Finding Your Purpose with Jessica Rydalch

What is our purpose? I feel like we all have a purpose, and we are actually living that purpose. However, sometimes it is unclear what exactly that is. In this episode, my friend Jessica Rydalch interviews me about identifying your purpose.  We talk about what a purpose is, why it can help to identify it, and what this can do to help us in our day-to-day. We talk about our own purposes and walk through the exercise I created to help others find their purpose. If you are interested in learning more send me a message at maria@mariastrangecoaching.com
