In this Champagne Charlas episode of Modern Latina in Midlife, I’m sitting down with my dear friend and intuitive healer, Kimberly Katherine, to talk honestly about what it’s reallylike to become an empty nester. We’re only a few weeks in—week five, six—and already it’s brought up waves of unexpected grief, pride, identity shifts, and those “out of nowhere” tears that feel a lot like loss. We share how we’re navigating quiet houses, kids getting sick far away from home, and that helpless feeling of not being able to swoop in and fix it like we usedto—whether they’re off at university or in the Navy.

We also talk about the practical and spiritual side of this transition: grocery bills and gas going down, rearranging rooms, the urge to move (or not move), and how we’re using this season to turn inward. You’ll hear how we’re leaning on journaling, meditation, nervous system regulation, spirit guides, and deep inner work to rediscover who we are beyond motherhood. If you’re an empty nester, or you know it’s coming, this conversation will make you feel seen, less alone, and hopefully a little more supported as you write your next chapter, too.

So grab your favorite bubbly or tea, get comfy, and join us for this honest girlfriend conversation.
