Finding Time Freedom & Flexibility: How A Work From Home Job Changed Everything For Mary Elaine Baker
Trying to navigate a career as a military spouse is tough! But having your own thing is possible! In today’s episode, we chat with Mary Elaine Baker, a military spouse veteran who chose to leave her teaching career for a better work-life balance. She became a virtual assistant and eventually created VAUSA, a company that connects military spouses with virtual job opportunities.
We talk about her journey from brand new military wife and mom to now living a life that allows her time freedom and flexibility, while pursuing a mission that she is passionate about. Mary Elaine shares about the joys and challenges of starting your own business as a military spouse and what it looks like to pursue a dream, while still navigating military life and dealing with frequent deployments. We talk about work-life balance as a military spouse, finding your own identity, communicating with your active duty military member, the importance of knowing your why, work from home jobs for military spouses, and the skills you need to become the person you want to be.
You’ll walk away from this episode feeling both encouraged and inspired to chase your own dreams and find something that you can take with you wherever you go!
