For those women who are in the empty-nest season or facing this transitional time soon, this episode is for you. Last episode I shared my personal experience and feelings of being a new empty nester. Now I present a coach who specifically guides women in this journey to rediscover their purpose, passion and joy.

Joanne Clark is originally from Denver, Colorado and is currently residing in Green Bay, Wisconsin. She has a BA in Psychology from Creighton University and has always been fascinated by brain function and human development. After 20 years in Training and Development for a variety of companies, Joanne has turned her focus toward mentoring empty nest moms so they can rediscover purpose and joy in this next phase of their lives. 

She and her husband are proud parents to two adult children, one of whom is almost off the family phone plan! When she's not working, Joanne enjoys reading, cross stitching, and walking her rescue dog, Ellie. Despite her initial struggle with her empty nest, Joanne is finding more self confidence and more joy in this midlife stage than she ever imagined possible.

TAKEAWAYS FROM EPISODE:
1) Find new purpose in the empty nest season. Do your next thing, maybe re-invent yourself.
2) We are not alone in this season, nor in how we are feeling.
3) The biggest struggle is that we have put ourselves on the back burner for all those years and now can't figure out what to do next.
4) Reconnect with your younger self. Trust your inner voice.
