How To Launch Your Kids Well with Cristina Wright | Episode 292
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
A mother’s job is to teach her children to not need her anymore. The hardest part of that job is accepting success.
We pour our lives into our kids. We sacrifice, lose sleep, and make sure they have everything they need, only to have them one day leave to live on their own without us. My guest understands this feeling as a parent with one foot in and the other foot out of the launching phase.
Cristina Wright is an author, former homeschool mom, wife, and mother of two. Her first book, Launch Them Well, helps moms navigate the emotional rollercoaster of watching their children grow into young adults—while also empowering those kids to thrive in independence.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Guidance on how to launch your kids well
- Why your identity should involve more than your role as a parent
- How to process the grief that occurs after your child launches
- And more!
This is a topic I am passionate about, and I felt so blessed by the wisdom Cristina had to share!
