A Moment For Military Motherhood

About this episode

Kerri discusses the challenges of military motherhood with Lyndsay, a founder of Dandelion Military Families.

In this episode, Kerri is joined by Lyndsay, one of the founders of Dandelion Military Families, to talk about parenting within the realities of military life. After a traumatic birth and a move across the country with a newborn, Lyndsay found herself navigating early motherhood without the support networks many parents rely on. Her experience led to the creation of Dandelion Military Families, a peer support and advocacy network connecting military parents and raising awareness of the challenges they can face.
