    About this ebook

    Dear military wife or girlfriend going into your first deployment... or anyone eager to have a positive, motivating and fulfilling deployment while you're far from the love of your life:

    Over the past eight years, I've gone from being lonely and discouraged during deployments, to positive and fulfilled when my husband is away. Even though I miss him like there's a hole in my heart, I've discovered how to stay motivated, get myself off the couch, and have fun while he's gone.

    What you'll learn inside The New Military Wife’s Guide To Deployment:

    -how to stay motivated to be social
    -healthy ways to stay busy
    -how to be comfortable walking into a room filled with people you don't know
    -how to turn an acquaintance into a friend so you have someone to hang out with
    -how to build up your support community so you don't feel as alone all the time
    -staying positive without being fake
    -creating boundaries in your life so you're not so overwhelmed all the time with your daily responsibilities
    -how to process your feelings so you can cope with your struggles in a healthy way
    -how to find people who understand you and who care about what's going on in your life
    -great activities to distract you and help time seem to go faster
    -and more!

    I'll share with you how I was able to turn a miserable, lonely deployment into an enjoyable time where I met great friends and become more social. I'll tell you how I learned how to stop stuffing my emotions and to process them and reduce my anxiety by 100 fold!

    As someone who has done four deployments, each in a different phase of relationship: as a military girlfriend, a fiance', a wife with no kids, and a mom of a young baby, I know that each stage has its own challenges. I also know that if you're in any of those stages, what I share can help you instantly and dramatically improve your experience during deployment.

    I'm not going to tell you that you won't feel lonely or have days where you are completely unmotivated, discouraged and worn out. I would be lying if I said that. What I will share is how to process those difficult days and to respond to them in a way that results in a positive, motivating and fulfilling deployment experience.

    xoxo,
    Heather Goffrier
