That’s how I felt when my fiance, John, deployed to Afghanistan for a year. I didn’t grow up in a military family. I had no idea what military life was life… except for what I had seen on TV and in the movies.
I felt completely out of my element.
During that year, I started writing. And writing. And writing. Jo, My Gosh! was born. And I found out that I wasn’t as alone as I thought I was.
Lonely. Unsure. Frightened. In over my head.

Jo, My Gosh! is now one of the largest military spouse lifestyle websites online. If you’re in the media or PR, please reach out to me at jomygosh (at) gmail (dot) com. I am media and brand-friendly.
In fact, I found out that there was a whole community of military spouses and significant others who felt just like me or who had been there and were willing to extend a helping hand. And that made all the difference.
I’m excited to get to know you and share with you on your own military journey. Let’s do this together.
