Are you standing in your quiet kitchen, feeling a void that even work can't fill? There's nothing wrong with you, and there are proactive ways to feel like yourself again. Today, I’m exploring a topic often left unspoken: the profound emotional shift that happens when our homes become quiet after our kids launch.
Many of us imagine an empty nest filled with relaxation and new hobbies, but the reality for so many is a sense of grief, loneliness, or a feeling of being completely lost. I want you to know that feeling this way is completely normal – you're not broken; you're just adjusting. Let’s explore proactive ways to navigate these feelings, from the power of therapy and life coaching to creating a personal "wellness space" in your home. It's about remembering that you matter, your joy matters, and this quiet period is actually the beginning of a new chapter in your life.
In this episode, I discuss:
👉 Coping with the empty nest quiet
👉 Why grief and loneliness are normal
👉 Therapy versus life coaching benefits
👉 Affordable mental wellness resources
👉 Creating your home wellness sanctuary
👉 Rebuilding your social connections
