In this episode, I’m sitting down with my sweet friend, Suzy Mighell, author of the FABULOUS new release, "Empty Nest: 60 Days to Finding Joy in the Empty Nest." Suzy shares her heart and practical wisdom for navigating the challenging transition from hands-on parenting to developing healthy, encouraging adult-to-adult relationships with grown children. 

We discuss:

- The emotional journey of the empty nest 

- Practical strategies for supporting adult kids and in-laws 

- Finding renewed purpose after the kids leave home

Suzy also gives wise insight into self-reflection, embracing new roles, and gracefully entering the grandparent chapter. 

Whether you're approaching the empty nest years or already well into them, this episode offers uplifting encouragement and actionable tips to help you thrive. Don’t forget to check out Suzy's book and resources linked in the show notes.
