Description

In today’s episode we have a conversation that has been looming for months: our children leaving for college in just a few short weeks.  Kate has been preparing herself as she has done this 2 other times, whereas Betsy is going in blind not knowing what to expect.  This leads into a broader conversation of grief, witnessing each other, and why we are sick of finding a silver lining.

In today’s episode we talk about:

• Kate’s process of preparing for her final child to leave home for college, and how she has been allowing herself to grieve for many months.

• The YouTube video that Jack (Kate’s son) sent his mom about “soiling the nest” in attempt to explain what is happening.

• Mom guilt – can we ever get out from under this?

• Grief as the “master emotion” and it’s ever present presence in our lives these days.

• Why witnessing each other is essential as we end life chapters, and why those silver linings don’t feel that useful.
