18: How to Keep Holiday Spirits Bright Inside Your Empty Nest


Listen Later

Holidays look different in your empty nest, but they don't have to lose their magic. Here's how to enjoy the holidays with your adult kids.

If you've got adult kids, you already know how quickly holiday spirits can sag when you start trying to navigate everyone's schedule and expectations in this empty nest season of life.

And if those adult kids have families of their own, making holiday plans can start to feel like a negotiation between countries trying to reach a treaty.

OK, maybe not that bad. But when you've put years into creating meaningful holiday traditions that your family enjoys, it can be disorienting to realize that things won't be the same this year.

Is it any wonder that these special days can seem to lose their luster?

I'm here to share that they don't have to.

In today's episode, let's talk about how to keep spirits bright when life looks different inside your empty nest.
