For years, I couldn’t say “Happy Memorial Day.” As a veteran, I’ve lost friends - in combat and in the quiet after. The Memorial Day meaning runs deeper than a long weekend. It’s about honoring real people, real sacrifice, and the weight we carry long after the uniform is gone. This blog isn’t fluff - it’s the truth, from someone who’s lived it.
Looking for a community of women that’s actually supportive?
