One of the biggest mistakes couples make…
They wait until their children turn 18 to find themselves or worse, to find each other again.
By then, it’s often too late.
Years of emotional disconnect…
Needs unmet…
Roles shifted, and no roadmap for what comes next…
Children growing up and leaving home is one of life’s biggest transitions , yet it’s the one few of us ever prepare for.
And here’s the truth:
Men and women deal with this transition differently.
Sometimes it shows up as physical illness.Other times, it shows up as sadness, depression, or a quiet sense of loss.
But those feelings? They’re not just random.They’re *signs* that your identity, your relationship, and your purpose are all asking for attention.
So don’t wait for the house to be empty before you start asking the deeper questions.
Start now. Begin reconnecting with yourself. Begin rediscovering each other. Start rebuilding that emotional intimacy, not as parents, but as partners.Because when the parenting role ends, what remains is you.
Make sure that’s someone you love and someone you’re still deeply connected to.
What are you doing today to prepare for that transition?
Love
