Our Guest: Stephanie Hearn Purcell, “To Love and Support: The American Military Spouse”
This week’s guest is Stephanie Hearn Purcell, producer and director of “To Love and Support: The American Military Spouse,” an award-winning documentary about military spouses from all branches past and present.
From deployments to homecomings, this documentary aims to show what daily life is like when you’re raising children, pursuing a career and maintaining personal independence while living with the military expectation of “Duty First.”
The documentary depicts how some aspects of the role of military spouse have changed and others remained the same. You can rent “To Love and Support: The American Military Spouse” on Amazon.
