Join host, Sergio Rodriguez, and co-host, Kaleshia Hatchin, as they chat with Samantha Hatch, Navy Reserve chaplain and Navy spouse about the emotional cycle of deployment. As Navy families, we endure deployments as a regular part of our lifestyle. But just because we experience them frequently does not mean we are deployment experts. As Sam explains, each deployment is different and knowing where you are in the cycle is important to better understand and support yourselves and your family.
Show Takeaways:
- Communication is key before, during, and after deployment.
- Lean on the resources in your community (FRG, ombudsman, spouse groups) in times of need.
- Find your local Naval Services FamilyLine chapter and register for the next Compass session.
