If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost yourself in military life, you’re not alone. In this episode, I sit down with Shari Biery, a national board-certified health and wellness coach, author of It’s Your Turn, and longtime military spouse, to talk about something so many of us experience but rarely say out loud: 👉 What happens when you’ve spent years putting yourself last? After two decades of military life, multiple PCS moves, career disruptions, and raising a family, Shari reached a breaking point—burnout, exhaustion, and the realization that she had been waiting for permission to take care of herself. In this conversation, we talk about: Navigating military spouse identity loss The hidden toll of constant moving and career disruption Why so many military spouses feel guilt around self-care How burnout shows up physically, emotionally, and mentally The mindset shift from “I should” → “I get to” What it actually looks like to start choosing yourself again Better Together, Christine Mentioned in this Episode Connect With Shari: Website: ShariBiery.com Book: It’s Your Turn Quiz: What Is Your Spark Type?
