Beautiful book to help loneliness!

After moving across the country, I’ve felt like an empty nester even though my kids are grown and my whole family is still back in California. This audiobook made me feel understood and gave me ideas for building a new life here instead of just missing the old one. I liked the mix of practical tips and encouragement—it reminded me that this can be a time for growth, not just loneliness. I’m already trying a few suggestions, and it’s helping.

fresh perspectives to consider here

I got an inside look at what my parents went through when I moved out at 18 and came back for a few months at 30. Wow. A good friend is currently becoming an empty nester and I immediately thought of her. It was nice to suggest all the career changes or passion projects that parents could do to fill the time. Its also important to keep dating your spouse in the lead up so things don’t fall apart once the kids leave.

Rediscover your purpose

Filling the Empty Nest is a thoughtful and empowering guide for parents navigating the transition to life after their children leave home. The book offers practical strategies to rediscover personal purpose, embrace self-reinvention, and build new relationships with adult children. With a compassionate and encouraging tone, it provides valuable insights for turning this life stage into an opportunity for growth, fulfillment, and renewed joy.

This book is more than just a self-help guide; it's a source of comfort and support for parents navigating the emotional transition of the empty nest.
