In this pilot, we introduce ourselves, share how we became TCKs (third culture kids), how we met, and what inspired us to create this podcast about identity, belonging, and living between worlds.

Service, Sacrifice & Support Systems with Stacie Stufflebeam
04/06/2026This week, Ariel and May sit down with Stacie Stufflebeam, Executive Director of the Michael Levin Lone Soldier Foundation, for a conversation about service, sacrifice, and the people who support soldiers behind the scenes.
As both a lone soldier mother and a leader within one of the organizations making the greatest impact for lone soldiers, Stacie shares her unique perspective on what it was like watching her Lone Soldier sons serve, the challenges and emotions that come with supporting lone soldiers, and how those experiences eventually led her to a career helping thousands of soldiers far from home.
From personal stories and difficult moments to the importance of community, resilience, and finding purpose, this episode offers a side of the lone soldier experience that isn’t often discussed—the families, parents, and support systems standing behind the uniform.
