The Girlfriend's Guide to an Empty Nest

2. The Journey to the Empty Nest


Listen Later

Today we are comparing our current journeys with empty nesting. One of us sees the empty nest through the windshield, the other one can see it in the rearview mirror.

Thanks for hanging out with us today, it’s an honor to share with you our different experiences, and we pray you leave encouraged about this topic that is close to both our hearts. 


You’ll hear us share today:

  1. Our thoughts on being friends with your kids

  2. How men and women are different when it comes to all the “lasts” with your kids in high school

  3. A small but profound line in the Bible about Mary the mother of Jesus that shows us it’s Biblical to mark memories down

  4. Things to look forward to once your kiddos leave the nest

  5. Why bumping heads with senior kids could be a good sign, something to make empty nesting an easier transition 

  6. The wisdom of expecting an emotional rollercoaster at times in this season (grief they are gone AND excited for when they will leave and when they visit!)
