Episode 87: Jennie McClelland

About this episode

This week, I catch up with Jennie McClelland. Jennie is a farmer and an army wife who has lived in military housing for more than 20 years. In that time, she's raised four children, and for many of those years, she raised them alone. Her husband was deployed oversees to places like Iraq and Afghanistan, and at one point, went to war and didn't come home for nine months. Jennie and her family are now closing the chapter on military life, and making the change from army life, to rural life. And Jenny is all in. This is her story.
