Summary
This episode is all about that weird, emotional, slightly chaotic stage of life when your kids start growing up, pulling away, and suddenly you realize… wait, who am I without all of this? We’re talking about the shift in family dynamics, relationships, marriage, identity, and what life actually looks like when the kids start leaving home. How do you stay connected, rediscover yourself, and figure out what this next chapter is supposed to be?
Raising kids is one thing… figuring out who you are after they leave is a whole other story.
