016 : Alecia
from The InDependent Spouse Podcast with Jess Sands
Today I am talking to the completely amazing Alecia. If you've been watching Heist on Sky One you will probably recognise Alecia as the no-nonsense talking, highly skilled detective, but there's so much more to this military spouse than that. In this very open interview, Alecia shares her experiences of working as a police constable whilst her husband was deployed and how PTSD has affected their life since his return. We also get a behind the scenes look of the Heist, how she helps run Elite Air Imagery, and of course, her work to support families of Royal Marines also suffering with PTSD. This episode is jam-packed full of resilience and inspiration and is a must listen for any spouse who is living the military life. I really hope you enjoy it.Connect with the Milspo Community: If you are a UK military spouse, partner, or "other half" running a business, join our thriving community of over 1,500+ members at milspo.co.uk.About The InDependent Spouse Podcast: Hosted by Jess Sands, this podcast is dedicated to modern military life, deployment support, and navigating life on the patch.
