b'Linda Kreter and Military Network Radio with Co-host Tosombra Kimes bring you today\'s guest, Lisa Colella, director of HealingHousehold6 speaking on "Crucial Challenges of Military Spouses". As spouses, partners, or dependents, they didn\'t raise their hand for the Oath, but the military family has distinct challenges. These include isolation, overwhelm, role changes, frequent relocations, mental health risks, depression, suicide, and loss, often without knowledge of where to turn. For each phase, more communication, "onboarding", and responses to transitions for the military family could help alleviate the mental health risks within the amazing military family culture. Everyone serves, and together we make a difference. Also on iTunes, and more information at www.MilitaryNetworkRadio.com.'
