For the Greater Good

How does it feel to sit down to the first Thanksgiving you and your husband and children have shared together in three years? The Cunningham family is grateful. Navy Reserve Lt. Jennifer Cunningham left for a deployment to Djibouti just two days after her husband retired from active-duty service. 

Her deployment was extended as COVID-19 pandemic protocols were put in place. When Jennifer finally made it home to her family after 14 months, she came home not only to changes in her daughters and husband but to the entire world around her that no longer felt familiar.

During this episode host Lesley Lykins and Lt. Jennifer Cunningham discuss gratitude and resilience.
