Welcome to Part 2 of our popular Empty Nest series! Now ranked in the top 25 empty nest podcasts globally—and #1 in the UK—this episode dives deep into life after your kids leave home. That quiet house, the less laundry, the unexpected gap—how do you cope, reconnect, and create a fulfilling new chapter?
Hosts Liz and Michelle chat with a panel of experts and empty nesters offering honest advice and diverse perspectives. Celia Dodd, author of The Empty Nest, shares insights on navigating this transition. Dr Dominique Thompson, GP and mental health expert, offers practical tips for wellbeing. Helen Wills, lifestyle blogger and podcaster, Suzanne Baum, celebrity interviewer, and actor Dave Keeling (a dad’s view) join in. Plus hear from listeners Natalie, Caroline, and Steph about their personal empty nest journeys.
Discover ways to redefine your life beyond parenting—finding new passions, strengthening your relationship with your spouse, and embracing freedom without guilt. It’s about hope, honesty, and the reality of changing family dynamics.
