Nearly 45% of female veterans in homeless programs offered by the Department of Veterans Affairs in fiscal 2023 had documented histories of sexual trauma in the military.

➡️ LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS ⬅️

The more I got through what I’ve done since starting in 2021, the more I feel guilty… guilty that I felt like I left the mission behind even though I had to take care of myself. Strides were made, even if they aren’t huge, steps forwards are still steps.

With me being so close to officially getting my DD214, I’m back, I’m healthy and ready to get back into this.

Thank you to those that are still here and I’m sorry if at some point I made you feel like I didn’t care or flaky… I poured too much in others glasses, got burnt out, and spiraled. Thankfully got a solid support system on all different angles. I’ve done a lot of healing, growth and so much more. IM SORRY AGAIN, but I’m so happy to be back ❤️

REPOST:

“How would finish this? I’ll go first…”

J Marie here…

When my pepaw passed last year, I went on a downward spiral. Everything resurfaced. My past, everything I’ve buried, came to life and life said, “you’re going to face this all now.”

you noticed I went MIA on and off last year. This was a huge thing for me to cope, but I finally had to unfu*k myself. I went to therapy, learned ways to cope with my trauma even all the way back to my childhood. Was it easy? No. Did I stick with it from the start? No. But how can I sit and preach and preach but not take care of myself too? Doesn’t seem right. I poured into everybody’s glass but neglected myself.

So like asked… what’s your response?

SOMETHINGS BREWING ✨

As I gear up to officially get out of the military, we’re starting to plan for the next step. What might that be? We have an idea, but want to start working towards things, whether it’s working with these other nonprofits or starting something ourself. Who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️

So please tag ones you know of, worked with or whatever!

✨IS IT TIME FOR A COMEBACK?!✨

Yupp. It’s me, J Marie. 💁🏼‍♀️ passed our bed times I know, but I FINALLY got back into my account.

Where have I been? If you followed my journey you knew it got hard, and just a lot. I had to figure life out, got into therapy, and SO MUCH more that I can’t wait to talk about.

Not sure about delivering episodes again, JUST YET, but I’m back. Im fired up. I promise I really am back this time.

IM FINALLY FEELING ALIVE AGAIN.

So did y’all miss me? Y’all ready to ruffle feathers? I SURE AM 🤪

Service Dog Sunday!
A growing number of veteran women (civilian women as well) who experienced sexual trauma while on active duty have been able to move forward with their PTSD with the help of a service dog.

Tasks are often but not limited to:
-got your six (standing behind you back to back)
-DPT (deep pressure therapy to calm before a panic/anxiety attack can occur)
-waking from nightmares
-blocking
-distracting (bringing your attention to them)

🌿 some days are just sh*tty🌿 and it’s a simple as that. while we can wake up each morning and set our intentions and complete our rituals ready for a good day, some days are just sh*tty. It feels like nothing is going your way, every one seems like their in a bad mood, or you know you are feeling negative but just can’t change it and THAT IS OKAY!

I feel like, especially in the spiritual & feminist side of pop culture, that there is a sense of toxic positivity. Wether it’s to “just stay positive” or “no bad days” or “good vibes only” there is this rhetoric that if you act like everything is okay, then you won’t ever be sad. But here’s some news- emotions like sadness and anger and frustration are natural, and if you treat them as negative and unwanted, you’re just going to be MORE sad or angry or frustrated when these feelings do arise because you never let yourself feel it.

But these feelings don’t feel GOOD, why would I want to feel them? When you push emotions like these down, they begin to build, they don’t just go away. If you ignore them, then they will start to manifest into the little cracks in your life where any minor inconvenience becomes a huge emotional experience. So my tip for you today is understand that SOME DAYS ARE JUST SH*TTY. It doesn’t mean your life is sh*tty, but understand that you are allowed to feel bad, experience these emotions, sit with them, breathe through them, and let them wash through you rather than build up!

Are you good at letting yourself feel all types of emotions? How can you work on it? Comment below!! 👇🏼💬

Happy Turkey Day 🦃

I’m thankful for you all, the support, and believing in the mission. Being there on my darkest of days, letting me be your voices during yours, and making this mission grow.

We’re nowhere near done to fighting this fight, but I’m thankful for the village behind it.

Make sure to call or text a friend or old buddy today. Some people lost loved ones, are alone, and spending holidays different this year.

THANK YOU 🔥

This couldn’t have came at a better time. Some little motivation I needed and was just an honor to have my name on the board for the first ever Veteran Podcast Awards. Broken Jarhead, LLC and Nonprofit Architect, let me just say for it being the first year, how well it was ran is truly phenomenal and I say that because we all go through trial an error.

You guys did amazing and thanks to the awards I was able to connect with new people! I can’t wait to see what you guys do next year. This hammer trophy is probably my absolute new favorite!

PS thank you all who took the time to share and vote for me 😉😘

🔥 Effed Up Friday 🔥

It’s that time for monthly Roundtable with Lani from Kruse Corner , Six from Cancelled For Maintenance, with our special guest .and.fleurs from .

We’ve turned this into a therapy session with good friends, how to decide if someone’s true and genuine, being a woman in the military, being Beta vs Alphas and so much more. We just want others to know it’s okay to not be okay. It’s okay to get help.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO JUST SUCK IT UP. Getting help does not make you weak.

With this month being Su***de Prevention, things like this are SO important. Just being raw, about raw topics and just being surrounded by genuine people.

PS… Don’t be taken back by the title. You’ll know once you listen
