Mothers, Daughters & the Empty Nest

 

What We Need From Each Other

& What We Need to Offer

 

With Dr. Helen McIntosh and Charlotte’s Daughters, Kate and Cambri

As empty nesting moms, we find ourselves in unique spaces and places. Many of us are doing life with our own parents and our adult daughters. Some of us have more time on our hands and some have less. As we pour out and love our families, we also must manage our own expectations and emotions.

Listen in as Helen and Charlotte talk about:

  • How healthy is our nest? And our relationships?
  •  

    • How can we moms offer more than we expect to receive?
    •  

      • How do we not set ourselves up for disappointment?
      •  

        • How can we release our expectations, yet share our hopes?
        •  

          • What do our girls need from us?
          •  

            Leaning in and looking to Jesus to lead our days is the answer to most of life’s issue. Yet sometimes it is hard to surrender and let Him do so. How can we better do this? Seeing our daughters with the eyes of Christ certainly helps us understand their lives and needs. Charlotte likes to ask her girls, “How can I best love and support you these days? How can I be praying for you?

             

            What else can we do as moms to love our adult daughters as we empty nest?

             

            Thanks for joining us in this meaningful conversation,
