Ep. 92 - Breaking Barriers for Military Families with Dr. Monica
In this inspiring episode, hosts Nicki and Maura sit down with Dr. Monica, a powerhouse advocate and educator dedicated to supporting military families through every stage of service and transition.
Dr. Monica shares her insights on how military parents can help their kids navigate the big emotions that come with deployment and separation, and she opens up about her work through the Resilient Military Family Academy, which equips families with the tools to build strength and connection despite the challenges of military life.
The conversation also dives into the realities of being the “default parent,” how to reclaim self-care before and after motherhood, and the importance of talking about the “quiet barriers” military spouses face. These are topics that are often left unspoken in the community.
Plus, Dr. Monica gives us a peek into her favorite book recommendations and her love for the Danish concept of Hygge, offering practical ways to bring warmth, peace, and balance into military family life.
