In this episode, I sit down with my best friend Sheryl to dive into the highs and lows of navigating life as an empty nester. From the bittersweet heartbreak of saying goodbye to her first child to finding balance and setting boundaries with the second, Sheryl opens up about her journey with warmth, honesty, and plenty of wisdom.


Whether you're stepping into the world of empty nesting or seeking inspiration for embracing this new chapter, Sheryl's story is sure to resonate.


Here’s what we explore in this episode:

- Coping with the Emotional Fallout: Sheryl shares how she managed the “emotional free fall” when her oldest left home and supported her younger children through their own feelings of loss.

- Navigating Boundaries and Fostering Independence: The delicate dance of letting her second child find their footing while maintaining a strong, healthy relationship.

- Rediscovering Passions and Purpose: How Sheryl found joy and fulfillment through a part-time role at Junior Achievement and strengthened her connections with friends during this transformative time.


Tune in and take the next step toward thriving in your empty nest journey!
