In this episode of The Scoop from the VET S.O.S. Network, host Kingsley Scott dives into a soul-stirring conversation with Jenna Griffith, author of Service and Soul: A Journey to Purpose for Military and First Responder Wives. Jenna’s story shines a light on the silent strength of spouses who stand in the shadows of service — balancing parenting, PCS moves, and personal sacrifice while rediscovering their purpose and power.

Jenna shares lessons from her book, exploring how energy, alignment, and self-awareness fuel transformation. From learning to surrender control to embracing faith and self-care, she offers a roadmap for women who’ve been holding the line for too long. Together, Kings and Jenna unpack what it means to say yes to new beginnings and build a life that reflects both service and soul.
