We are so excited to announce that Tara K will be joining us as a co-host for our live shows on BTR. Tara is the wife of a Army National Guard soldier who is currenlty deployed. She is also the mom to a great little boy. Tara will add a new dynamic to the group and give the Guard/Reserve wives someone to go to for support.

Please help us welcome Tara this week as she joins us for our live show with Stacy S as we talk about how to make careers portable. We will air live at 10 am EST.

We are so excited to be getting back to the air waves so to speak. We are busy preparing and scheduling our new shows and would like to tell you a little about them.

Our first show will be Friday, August 13 at 10 a.m. EST on Blog Talk Radio. We will be talking about coupon clipping and how we can save money at the grocery store and beyond. Send us your money saving tips that work well for you and we can share them live on Friday. We will be having a drawing for our coupon holder. You can be entered by tweeting about the show and leaving a comment here, listening to the live show and chatting in the chat room, posting this info on your blog. Please make sure to leave a comment here if you tweet or blog about this event.

The next show will be Friday, August 20th at 10 a.m. EST on Blog Talk Radio We will be talking with Holly Scherer. Holly is the co-author of HELP! I’m a Military Spouse I get a Life Too! Holly will be chatting with us about how we can have a live that we enjoy and desire as a military spouse. We will be giving away a copy of the book during the live show. The same contest rules apply that are listed above.

Our final show for August will be on the 27th (same time and place) and we will talk about the importance of having a portable career. As military families we move around often and it becomes vital that we make ourselves portable and marketable in different areas. We will have a giveaway for this show(TBD) and the same rules will apply to be entered in the drawing.

September 3rd we will be on break for Labor Day. Make sure to enjoy the last long weekend before fall sets in.

We will start our bible study on September 10th. This will be our focus of the live show for the next 6 weeks. PWOC has some great downloadable studies. We have looked them over and have decided to go with Change in Perspective by Julie Stoll. Many of us have moved or will move in the near future or face deployments/reunions and this study will help us navigate the feelings and draw closer to God.

Join the FMWCN team as we talk about saving money with clipping coupons. With growing families and a shrinking economy it is very important to save money in every area we can. Share your ideas with us during the live chat or post your comments here for a chance to win a coupon organizer!

We will air live on Friday August 13th at 10 am EST on Blog Talk Radio.

Calling all military spouses. FMWCN has decided to open additional co-hosting postions. If you have a desire to serve the Lord and other military spouses then this is the place for you.

Ideally FMWCN would like to see all branches of service represented on the weekly radio broadcast. If you are interested please email Shanno B (shannonb@frazledmwcn.com) with your contact info, best time to reach you and a little about yourself.

Live BTR shows will start again after Labor Day. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements!

I’m very sorry for the late delay in announcing this to you. FMWCN will not be having live shows during the summer months. We know that summer is a time for reconnecting with family, PCS season and even deployments. Because of this we want you to spend as much quality time with your family and loved ones and we wish to do the same. Starting the end of August/beginning of September we will air live once again. You can listen to any of our archived shows by visiting our BTR page.

We are also taking ideas for shows/topics you want to talk about. Some of the topics we have currently scheduled are:
Help! I’m a military spouse I get a life too
Portable Careers-how to chose which one is right for you
A.D.D. and Depression in children-How to recognize the signs and how to overcome the stigma of a label

Please leave your comments with what topics you would like to talk about.

Thank you all for your great support. Some great things are coming this year, be sure to spread the word about our live shows on BTR, our FB page and our web-site.

Shannon B is currently considering returning to the regular work force. In preparation for her schedule we are looking to see what time frame works best for our listeners to listen to the live FMWCN broadcast. Please take a minute to answer this brief survey so we can serve you better.
If you have another suggestion, other than those listed, please feel free to let us know. You may select more than one answer. Thanks for helping us bring you the best show possible.

On tomorrow’s show Brother Brandt will be with us. He is going to help us find ways to be thankful and count the blessings we have instead of always looking to the next best thing. It’s easy to get caught up in moving or waiting to move or even sending our kids off to school. How can we be present in the day to day things and complete the tasks that God has put before us? Come join us at 11 am EST on Blog Talk Radio as we explore ways to do just that.
