Authentic Stories, Mindfulness, and Community —
Empowering Military Families and Creatives Wherever Life Leads

Welcome to Wondering.Waves, a space dedicated to authentic storytelling, mindfulness, and fostering connection for military families, active duty members, and creatives navigating life’s unique journeys.

Finding Home, Mindfulness, and Meaning—Together

Hi, we’re the Walkers—Latosha and Matthew. While I (Latosha) founded Wondering.Waves, this space is truly a legacy of our life together: the stories we’ve lived, the places we’ve called home, and the moments—big and small—that have shaped us.

As a military family, our journey has taken us across the country and around the world. We’ve learned that every new city, every hidden gem, and every fleeting moment with friends or family is worth remembering. Some memories are grand adventures, others are quiet dinners at a favorite restaurant or laughter shared with people we may never see again. All of them matter.

Wondering.Waves is where we capture these stories—not just for ourselves, but for anyone searching for connection, inspiration, or a sense of belonging. I’m creating a daily mindfulness-focused blog series alongside community initiatives that share meaningful stories and practical resources. These empower others to navigate change, embrace creativity, and build supportive networks wherever life takes them.

I believe mindfulness can be found in the simplest things—even just taking a walk around the block without your phone can be a mindful moment that grounds you in the present. It’s these small acts of awareness that help us find peace and connection amid life’s constant change.

Our hope is that Wondering.Waves becomes a living scrapbook—a place to celebrate the real, sometimes messy, always meaningful moments of military and creative life. Whether you’re looking for ideas, encouragement, or simply a reminder that your story matters, we’re glad you’re here to share this journey with us.

Meet the Makers

Latosha Walker
STORYTELLER, MAKER & COMMUNITY BUILDER

Hi! I’m Latosha—the military spouse, creator, and storyteller behind Wondering.Waves. I share stories of mindfulness, military life, travel, and creativity to inspire connection, celebrate resilience, and bring a little more comfort and joy to every day. Together with Matthew, I’m building a community where military families and creatives can find belonging and strength—one story, one mindful moment, one shared adventure at a time.

Fun fact: I’ve crocheted in 15 states (and even in Japan!).

He’s always up for discovering new places, sharing foodie finds, and helping us hunt down the best eats wherever military life takes us. (Foodie alert!)

Favorite travel snack: Anything local and new that I can try!
