In this heartfelt episode of The Marriage Architects, hosts Heather and Marc explore one of the most tender transitions in family life, releasing your young adult children into God’s hands.

With over 20 years of counseling experience and a foundation rooted in biblical wisdom, they open up about the emotional, spiritual, and relational shifts that come with this season.

Anchored in Ecclesiastes 3 “There is a time for everything...” Marc and Heather share personal stories, practical tools, and biblical encouragement for parents navigating this new chapter. From learning how to let go without stepping away, to prioritizing prayer, wisdom, and healthy boundaries, they offer guidance to help couples walk in unity while supporting their children's independence.

You’ll be reminded that while parenting changes, your influence doesn’t end; and a strong, Christ-centered marriage can continue to bless generations. Tune in to discover how to release with peace, support with grace, and build a lasting legacy of faith and family.
