How do you stay mentally strong these days? Share something that helps you (routine, therapy, fitness, etc.). I have so many responsibilities these days that it is hard to find time to let it all go. But I have to or I'd go crazy. I walk my dog in the mornings and evenings. The evening walks are what I use to let go of my day. It relaxes me. If I miss a walk, I really feel it. So I try to make it non-negotiable. How about you?

Today I was boating with my friends, one on the Navy, one in the Marines, and one in the Army! It was a great day on the water!!

Welcome to Beyond The Uniform: Build, Create, Thrive It is for veterans, believers, creatives & tech professionals seeking purpose, peace, and passive income after service. Faith. Freedom. Fitness. Focus. Welcome to my online community! I welcome all veterans who have served their country. I’m a disabled U.S. Army veteran who lived in Italy during my enlisted service and lived in Germany as an officer's wife. I’ve seen the beauty, challenges, and unique lifestyle of military families — and I know the ups and downs of transition, especially when disability becomes part of your story. I'm an Army veteran, mom, grandma, wife, software engineer, digital marketer (Legacy Builder), and lifelong learner. I’ve lived overseas, studied multiple languages, and today I’m preparing to retire — not to stop living, but to start building something meaningful. This group is for veterans, disabled vets, spouses, and family members who want real support, real opportunity, and real freedom. Whether you're looking for healing, income, purpose — or just people who understand — you’re in the right place. Together, we’ll build lives of purpose, connection, and income… on our terms. Please introduce yourself and mention the service you were in.
