This episode is raw, tear-filled, and honest as Julie shares what it was actually like to say goodbye to Heath as he left for the United States — the pride, the ache, and the messy middle. We walk through the good, the bad, the ugly, the learning, and the letting go. It’s matrescence at the other end of parenting, when identity is cleaved and you gather the pieces to remake yourself, and when love and intimacy are invited to mature.
In this episode we discuss:
- Letting go of a son to the world and the real sensations of a stretched nervous system without pathologising it
- The grief-swell and pride-swell cycle, and allowing both to belong
- Identity beyond roles: who am I when the house is quieter and the calendar opens
- Micro-choices that rebuild selfhood: choosing your own rhythm, protecting small desires, giving yourself room to want
- Loving without clinging: holding freedom for those we love and for ourselves
- How eroticism returns when pressure drops and sovereignty rises
- Partnership in transition: inviting support, naming needs, staying tender when you miss each other
