Marriage Retreat
Empower Academy's tailored workshop, 'Resilient and Ready', offers couples a shared understanding of safety and preparedness on the home front.
Integrating Empower Academy into military marriage retreats adds a powerful and practical layer to an already meaningful experience. While these retreats focus on strengthening communication, connection, and emotional resilience between couples, Empower Academy brings in the critical element of safety and preparedness on the home front. It opens important conversations about roles, responsibilities, and readiness during deployments or times of separation. Most importantly, it empowers both partners, together, to feel more secure, connected, and mission-ready, reinforcing the idea that protecting the family doesn’t stop at the front line.
'Resilient and Ready'
A Readiness Workshop for Families
This dynamic and practical workshop is designed specifically for military families navigating the unique challenges of deployment, relocation, and daily life on the home front. Led by seasoned instructors with real-world experience, Resilient and Ready equips participants with the critical skills of situational awareness, behavioral recognition, and mastering an analytical mindset so they can feel confident, capable, and in control, even when their partner is away. Through a combination of real-life case studies, hands-on strategies, and mindset training, spouses will learn how to recognize pre-threat indicators, avoid becoming a target, and navigate high-risk environments with clarity and confidence. Whether at home, on the road, or in unfamiliar situations, this workshop builds the tools and mindset to stay one step ahead; empowered, not afraid. This training aligns with the mission of Family Readiness by strengthening the safety, resilience, and independence of the military family, because when the home front is strong, the force is stronger.
