💡 Side-hustle math that actually works

Military spouses and stay-at-home parents aren’t looking for “dream boards” — we’re looking for bank deposits.

Tell me: Would you rather make an extra $300 a month doing something creative (writing, crafting, coaching)…or $1,000 doing something you don’t love but that pays consistently?

Some episodes stay with you and this is one of them.

This week on Beyond Orders, I had the absolute honor of sitting down with Tiffany McCawley. She's a military spouse, a mom of five, and someone whose strength and faith will stop you in your tracks.

In 2015, Tiffany faced the unthinkable; the loss of two of her children. What followed wasn’t a highlight reel. It was grief, grace, rebuilding, and choosing purpose over pain. She shares what it means to keep going when your world falls apart, and how showing up for others became part of her healing.

If you’ve ever needed permission to not be okay, and still keep moving, this conversation is for you.

I never planned on starting a podcast.

But I’ve spent the last several years talking to military spouses who are building careers during deployments, raising kids through PCS cycles, and navigating grief, identity loss, ambition, and instability while still showing up, day after day.

And I kept thinking… these stories deserve to be heard.

So, I hit record.

🎙️ Beyond Orders is live.

It’s not polished. It’s not fluffy. It’s not curated for clicks.
It’s real conversations with military spouses who have stepped outside the roles they were told to play and built something meaningful anyway.

In our first episodes, you’ll hear about rebuilding after loss, growing through instability, and redefining what leadership looks like when you're raising babies while leading teams.

This podcast isn’t about being impressive.
It’s about being honest.

If you’ve ever felt like you were meant for more than just surviving the next move or holding everything together in silence, this one’s for you.
