Military and veteran spouses face unique career challenges, but meaningful career growth is possible.

In this episode, Hannah is joined by Rachelle Chapman, Senior Director of the Adecco Group US Foundation, to talk about military spouse employment, career confidence, and the power of self-discovery. Rachelle shares her own 20-year career journey through eight military moves and introduces the It’s My Turn program; a free career development program designed specifically for veteran spouses.

We discuss why traditional job-search advice often falls short, how confidence is built through community, and why it’s never too late to invest in yourself.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why military spouse unemployment and underemployment remain so high
• How career gaps and relocations impact long-term earning potential
• Rachelle’s biggest career lesson: “Ask for what you want”
• What makes the It’s My Turn veteran spouse career program different
• Why self-discovery is the foundation of sustainable career growth

🎧 Whether you’re job searching, considering a career pivot, or simply trying to reconnect with your professional identity, this episode is for you.
