"I thought the military made me grow up fast, but it actually had me stuck as a teenager. "


The military makes you grow up fast.  It is something we hear a lot and it is so true in some ways. It wasn’t until I got out that I realized I had so much more growing up to do. 

This episode I want to chat about the ways the military forms you as an independent adult and also about the ways it stunts your growth as a person. 

Now not every point is going to apply to everyone, but I think you will be able to relate to a few and maybe even think of some more!


Thank you for pressing play on this small veteran podcast. If you enjoyed leave a little love with a review. It would not only help me reach more veterans but also make my whole week!
