Erin Returns!
Description
In this episode of Empty Nest Happy Hour, the ladies dive into a hilarious and heartfelt chat about life as empty nesters, from unexpected "rage issues" to listener stories. Danielle shares her recent battles with menopausal rage, including a dramatic (and hilarious) incident where she shattered her Apple Watch, while Erin brings some laughter with her "chlamydia" gardening mix-up story. They also discuss a heartwarming email from a listener in England, who sent in a pros and cons list about empty nesting—revealing that peace and quiet can sometimes be a double-edged sword.
The hosts share their own experiences of having too much alone time, the challenges of cooking for one, and the unexpected responsibilities that come with having the kids out of the house (like changing lightbulbs and being solely responsible for the dog). They highlight the joys of more "me time," a tidier home, and the satisfaction of raising independent children. As always, the conversation is full of humor, relatable anecdotes, and genuine moments of connection.
