Episode 126: Preparing For When The Kids Leave Home

When it is time for the kids to leave home and we are faced with the empty nest there are a number of elements to consider. This episode is about addressing some of the areas that you may need to plan for ideally ahead of time. How does our identity and interaction with our child begin to move from just parent to child exchange to adult to adult exchange? How will we negotiate time spent together and when to catch up? Now that the kids have left, how will you now best structure your time? Are you and your partner now having to rediscover each other after relating through the kids for so long, what will that look like? These and other elements for exploration are addressed in episode 126 and for those of you facing this phase. I hope it aids in navigating this transitional phase as elegantly as possible!
