Part 2 - Why Relationships Can Be Challenging For Empty-Nesters

Listen Later

There are three common challenges for empty-nesters:

  • Losing one’s identity or purpose
  • Missing convenient, organic relationships/craving meaningful connections
  • Struggling with a new lifestyle and daily structure

    • Relationships can feel challenging for empty-nesters if they:

    • experience marital/long-term partnership shifts—sometimes feeling like they’re living with a stranger now that it’s just the two of them.
    • crave deeper connection with adult children, yet don't know how to both honor their young adults’ independence while still feeling involved. 
    • re-evaluate friendships that were centered around parenting. 

      • If you know you could use some support as you navigate your relationships and connections in the empty nest stage with both confidence and self-confidence, email me to schedule a complimentary happy hour call:
