Description

Welcome to Beyond the Military! A podcast for military and veteran women and space to go after the life they want. Are you tired of trying to find a balance between your military and personal life? Are you sick of feeling exhausted from endless expectations and working all the time? Are you overwhelmed with the demand and responsibilities of everyone else, from your soldiers to your kids? Do you constantly feel like you’re trying to keep your head above water?  Imagine if you had a plan to overcome burnout and create more balance between your life and career. Imagine having enough time to focus on your faith, and family, and have more fun while still serving as a woman leader.  Welcome to Beyond the Military podcast where you'll walk away with the tools to help you navigate the busy life of a military woman, create intentional boundaries, and build a sustainable balance blueprint for integrating faith, family, and career.    Hi, I’m Wendi Wray, a woman of God, wife, mama, Army Veteran, Military Life Coach. After being in the military for around a year I became a workaholic. I lost sight of who I was as a wife and mom. There was a point in my career where everything was crumbling around me. Then, after a 20-week miscarriage, I went into a depression. I wanted to deploy with a prestigious unit, and the answer was no. I felt rejected… as if I had failed. I began to blame the military for lost time with my family. My husband and I ended up separating because of my career focus and lack of communication at the time.  I felt like I had lost everything.  I started looking for hope by reading personal development and seeking God. I realized it wasn’t my career that was going to make me happy, it was God and the people around me. I was missing the fun in my life. I had to learn how to let go and get off the hamster wheel of go-go-go.  I was led to change and it began with prayer, therapy, surrender, boundaries, balance, forgiveness, and lots of coaching!   I’m here to help you create a life of meaning outside the military. A life of laughter, joy, peace, and free time. YES, you read that correctly, so if you are ready to overcome burnout and create balance as a Christian military woman, this is the podcast for you.   Loosen your laces and grab your coffee, it’s time to step into freedom and peace!Learn more >>> https://wendiwray.com⠀Connect >>>hello@wendiwray.com⠀Community>>bit.ly/beyondthemilitarygrp⠀Instagram>>>@wendiwray⠀Wanna work together, sister-friend!?
