Episode 64-The Parent Pivot with Steve and Julia Cummings
Your role as a parent doesn’t end when your kids grow up—it pivots. Steve and Julia Cummings—authors of The Parent Pivot and hosts of The Parent Pivot Podcast—join Jim Burns on HomeWord to talk about the “parent pivot” that occurs when young adults leave the home and the role of a parent changes. They unpack the emotional challenges of watching kids leave home and the hard truth that clinging to control, especially through expectations, often does more harm than good. With deep insight and vulnerability, they share how to stay relationally connected with adult children, even when their choices don’t align with your hopes. They also offer wisdom on grandparenting—what works, what doesn’t, and how to step into that role in a way that supports your adult children, not overrides them.
