PART 2-Posting Overseas-Spouse Nicole's Experience

On this week’s Military Life podcast episode, I ask Defence Partner Nicole, who is currently posted in the USA with her ADF member and two children, ALLLL the overseas posting questions you didn’t even know you needed answered!

In PART TWO, Nicole and I talk about;

- The regret Nicole and her Husband felt about moving overseas once the dust had settled

- The impact on her mental health when the reality of being so far from home set in

- Feeling like everything is hard and different and figuring out their new normal

- Finally settling into living overseas and finding the positives

- Being bitten by the travel bug and visiting New York, Florida and other bucket-list locations

- Working through concerns around safety in their new location  

- Getting to work to make their house a home and building a new friend circle

- The huge amount of choice you have in the USA and the associated decision fatigue

- Feeling like life in Australia goes on and wondering if they will be forgotten

- Nicole’s top advice for others posting overseas

If you didn’t listen to PART ONE of this episode, consider giving it a listen. There is so much great overseas posting insight in Episode 173, PART ONE.
