EP 26 - Starting University/College and the Empty Nest
This is a solo episode by me. If your child is off to University / College / Leaving Home … then I want you to stop for a minute. Pat yourself on the back and congratulate yourself. You are about to launch your child as a fully-fledged young adult into the big wide world. THIS is what you have been leading up to. THIS is Success. They say - “If you love them - then set them free.” And the empty nest is the price for that success. In this episode, I talk about : Some of the emotions skills that your child needs ro equip them for this transition, Some of the practical skills they need that will make this transition a bit easier, How to approach your life at home now that the dynamics have changed, whether there are still kids at home or maybe you have the empty nest. ~~~~~ Have a look at my YouTube Series on this topic : 📍1 Preparing your child for College : https://youtu.be/8txIYVzmlfo (apologies for sound) 📍2.
