Episode Summary

The kids are gone, and you're feeling a mix of pride, excitement, and…emptiness. As empty nesters, it's normal to feel lost or wonder what your purpose is now. In this episode, we talk about how to navigate this new season of life, both as individuals and as a couple.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why It's Okay to Grieve: Embrace the feelings of loss that come with an empty nest and understand that it's a natural part of the transition.

  • Redefine Your Roles: Transition from being your children's managers to being their trusted consultants and learn to respect their new independence.

  • Discover Your God-Given Gifts: Find new passions and shared interests to pursue as a couple, from volunteering to starting a new hobby.

  • Prioritize Your Marriage: Learn to make your relationship a priority again and find new ways to connect and dream together for the future.
