Right now, there's a lot of anxiety, confusion, and information floating around. The U.S. government has been shut down since October 1st, and we're now in the last week of the month. It's one of the longest shutdowns in modern U.S. history.
If you've been feeling uneasy or just plain tired of the uncertainty, you're not alone. It's totally normal to feel that way. But there's also good news and today, I want to help you focus on that.
In this episode, I'm breaking down what's really going on with the government shutdown, what it is, why it's happening, and how it's impacting military pay and benefits.
We'll talk about what's open and what's not, what you can do if pay is delayed on November 1st, and where you can find real help right now. And because this show is all about uplifting others, not panic, I'm also sharing steps you can take to stay on track financially, protect your credit, and support one another.
