In this second of two parts of Growing Pains: The Next Chapter, Greer and Whitnie discuss some of the options, opportunities and considerations for you as you make your transition to empty nester or other life milestones.
Do you want to travel? Take up a new hobby? Start a business? Or write the next great novel? Whatever you desire, the world is at your feet. Set aside the time to dream, set your new vision and then take action to make this chapter your best chapter yet.
While you don't want to paper over any feelings you may have with your children being out of the house, it's a time for reflection and the chance for you to explore all those things you've put on hold as you nurtured your family and prepared them for their next phase. Just because your nest is empty doesn't mean your future has to be empty too. Now's the time to fill it to the brim.
If you find yourself struggling with the transition, please don't hesitate to reach out to a mental health professional.
