Female Founder 200 List, Fullerton is an ambitious corporate business woman turned entrepreneur, twin mom, and Air Force spouse. Spouse-ly, founded by military spouse Monica Fullerton, is an online marketplace to shop and support military & first responder owned businesses. Like many other military spouses, Monica had to pivot with her own career dreams and goals to adjust to finding a career that would be able to move around with the military lifestyle. While working her corporate career, she started a side business with her mother-in-law and it brought her such joy to be able to do something she truly loved on the side. After quickly discovering how much talent was within the military community alone, she knew she had to do something to bring everyone together on one easy platform for anyone to shop small, make a big impact, and purchase with a purpose.

Monica Fullerton - Creating an Online Market Place for Military & First Responder Families Monica Fullerton got her Masters and planned to pursue a job as a news anchor, but as an Air Force spouse that was not an easy career path to navigate. Instead Monica found work with a logistics company. It provided the ground work for her entrepreneurial journey. Monica has had an entrepreneurial spirit her whole life, but was waiting for the right business idea that provided purpose. She had an epiphany while riding in a car with some fellow spouses about the amount of talent spouses have to offer from things they make to the services they provide. Unfortunately military spouses are often underemployed or can't find employment due to the military lifestyle.  With that motivation, Spouse-ly was born.  Spouse-ly Spouse-ly is an online marketplace where you can shop for products and services all created by military or first responder families. Monica likens it to “Etsy” and“ Angie's List” colliding with a purpose of supporting our nation's heroes. This platform provides a place for spouses to create and earn money in the midst of the demanding lifestyles. Monica has hit the ground running, she was named “a Trailblazer in Tech by Military Spouse Magazine, Forbes Next 1000 List, and recently named on the MIGHTY 25 list as one of the most influential leaders supporting the military community.” Learn More www.spouse-ly.com FB: fb.com/spousely Instagram: @spouse.ly VeteranCrowd Network Our "forever promise" is to build the veteran and military spouse community a place to connect and engage.

Compressing any life's journey into a single conversation is hard under normal circumstances and becomes much more difficult when the person has worn so many different ‘hats' or uniforms. Each of those roles shapes who the person is and the reason for making each choice is a wonderful way to learn more about them. Eric Gates is the Founder and CEO of Devil Dog Coffee Company as well as a Veteran of the United States Marine Corps and a retired officer from the Austin, Texas police department. When he lost a dear friend to an active-duty shooting, he turned to alcohol for support. AA helped him realize that alcohol was not the solution he needed, and so he went to seminary and was ordained so he could minister to others. After serving the community by working in alcohol and drug treatment centers, he remembered the horrible coffee he used to drink during AA meetings and founded the Devil Dog Coffee Company. Today he makes a living by selling a beverage that literally saved his life. In this episode of Veteran Voices, produced in partnership with Vets2Industry and sponsored by Buyers Meeting Point and Dial P for Procurement, co-hosts Monica Fullerton, Founder and CEO of Spouse-ly, and Scott Luton speak with Eric about: • The power and vulnerability associated with accepting that sometimes difficulties are too much to handle alone • How much we all have in common – regardless of what walk of life we come from • The ways in which freedom and creativity go hand in hand, growing stronger along the way Additional Links & Resources: Learn more about Veteran Voices here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/veteran-voices Subscribe to Veteran Voices and other Supply Chain Now programs here: https://supplychainnow.com/subscribe Learn more about Vets2Industry: https://vets2industry.org/ This episode was hosted by Scott Luton and Monica Fullerton.

It takes a lot of courage to live as a military spouse, which is perhaps why so many military spouses make successful entrepreneurs. No matter how good a business idea is, entrepreneurs still have to summon the courage to put themselves ‘out there' and give it their best shot. Katie Prill took that leap of faith and added entrepreneur to the list of roles she already fills. She is a military spouse, a mother to two boys, a registered nurse, and one of the country's newest entrepreneurs. As the owner of ‘Love and Lettering by Katie' on the Spouse-ly platform, she offers a wide variety of home decor, stickers, clothing, seasonal gifts and decorations – including custom orders. In this episode of Veteran Voices, produced in partnership with Vets2Industry and sponsored by Buyers Meeting Point, co-hosts Monica Fullerton, Founder and CEO of Spouse-ly, and Scott Luton speak with Katie about: • The challenges of being a military spouse working in a licensed field like nursing or teaching, and the administrative overhead that has to be started over following each move • How (and why) people should find the strength to overcome their fears of starting a new business • Why taking care of yourself – finding time for breaks – may be the most important part of any entrepreneur's ‘hustle' Additional Links & Resources: Learn more about Veteran Voices here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/veteran-voices Subscribe to Veteran Voices and other Supply Chain Now programs here: https://supplychainnow.com/subscribe Learn more about Vets2Industry: https://vets2industry.org/ Learn more about Buyers Meeting Point: https://buyersmeetingpoint.com/ This episode was hosted by Scott Luton and Monica Fullerton.
