Having to create and adapt your work skills based on your partner's career, isn't easy to do. Cerise knew this first hand. 

Going from commuting all sorts of distances to keep her job, to being transferred to Kenya, her country of origin and still not being able to work, Cerise started to notice a pattern- finding a job as a military spouse was NOT easy. 

Employers didn't want to take the risk and were afraid they couldn't invest in her, even when she was overqualified for the role. Eventually, despite a brilliant education and thriving career in the finance world, she was forced to pivot her profession to follow her military husband.

After facing many challenges, she found her passion and purpose in a non-profit organisation called Recruit for Spouses, which specialises in getting military spouses work. 

Hear the full conversation about the impact the military has on family and partner professional life and how to create a thriving career as a military spouse, in this week's episode.
