Transitions! We all have them and this time I am talking about the shift from mom mode to empty nest life. Emotions that I didn’t expect and how can I give you insight for what might come your way as you enter new waters in parenting.
Hindsight is always 20/20 but I share how I could see the transition taking place as Logan got a little more independence when he started driving. How to find the balance that worked for me between “letting him fly” all while keeping boundaries, trusting him and being ok with him learning the hard way.
I open up about how I did my best to keep a solid foundation to still be his go to person and share what that looked like. Not always smooth sailing mom moments but the value of being authentic with him seems to have paid off!
What is next for me as an empty nester? How did I prepare for this new chapter? All in the podcast, so come get nourished with me!

At 41 years old, while traveling through Europe, Theresa had her aha moment: if she didn’t change course, her weight gain would soon rob her of the life she wanted to live. That realization sparked a journey of resilience, self-discovery, and transformation.
Theresa opens up about her lifelong struggle with food, body image, and yo-yo dieting—and how she ultimately lost 200 pounds and learned to maintain it. From the painful mixed messages she received about food growing up, to the harsh reality of “I simply can’t eat as much as other people,” she shares the truths she had to face in order to build a sustainable way of living.
With the help of a nutritionist and weight loss therapist, Theresa embraced balance over perfection. She learned to silence food “noise,” practice the 3-bite rule, and create her own plan instead of chasing fads. Today, she focuses on movement she enjoys, cutting out added sugar, and making choices that support her health long-term.
Her story is a powerful reminder that everyone’s journey looks different—and that progress, not perfection, is what truly matters.
