Resources
One of the hardest things to deal with in this lifestyle is the issue of always feeling alone. We often feel that nobody else can understand, or that the extremes of our emotional roller coaster are invalidated by the silence we often keep.
We are here to blow the lid off that sentiment. The only way we can fight this battle we are in is to do it together. Here, you will find every resource we think helpful, insightful, or just fun. We will continuously build as we find new ways to improve our lives and our relationships, and we will always invite and seek your opinions and approval as to what you think is working or not working.
None of us can do this alone. As strong as we feel, and are, there is always room for a fellow “fighter” to help and stand beside. We are battle buddies. And, just like our men, we won’t leave each other behind.
Check out the resources compiled here. And, as always, feel free to email us or leave comments about what you think needs to be up here.
