Shownotes Transcript

There are a lot of resources out there to help you as a military spouse navigate a deployment, learn how to PCS, set up a budget, understand military acronyms, go back to school, and even build your resume. But while there are more work-from-home opportunities than there has ever been before, and more employers willing to hire military spouses (depending on where you live), what hasn’t changed over time is the percentage of military spouses that are either unemployed or underemployed.

 

Zūlbiye Jorgensen is on a mission to change that statistic. A former active-duty military spouse, guard spouse, and now reserve spouse, she has become an advocate for the military spouse community, specifically focused on how military spouses can have a fulfilling career.

 

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • What military spouses specifically bring to the table

  • Ways that military spouses have used their expertise and creative problem-solving skills to turn opportunity into income

  • The number one skill you need to develop to have a fulfilling career as a military spouse

  • Practical ways to put this skill into action

 

If you are ready to have a fulfilling career as a military spouse, give this episode a listen!

Better Together,

Christine
