In this episode, I speak with my good friend Lee Lopez about her experience preparing her only daughter for college, how it was dropping her off, and how she is doing with the empty nest now. I love this episode because Lee is totally honest and transparent about all of the emotions that came up for her. We discuss how Brain BS can impact a relationship between a child and their parents when big milestones and stressful life changes are about to take place.
If anybody else would like to come on the podcast to talk about the empty nest or anything else related to your children, I would love the opportunity! Parenting can be very challenging and so can being the son or daughter of a parent who places all their expectations on you... so there is a lot to discuss! I would really like to talk to somebody who is estranged from a parent or a child so we can explore all the Brain BS that comes up with that.
You can count on me to have your back and provide a safe space where you can feel emotionally safe to share with me. I also want to add that I would never publish a podcast if somebody's nervous system could not handle being seen and heard in such a vulnerable way. I commit to that because I think the more we talk about all of this, the more we realize we are all so much more alike than different. You might think you are the only one who is having issues with your relationships, but I promise you that is Brain BS!

Every milestone in life comes with Brain BS and adjusting to the empty nest is no exception. It is a huge adjustment for both the children and the parents but if you can learn to manage your mind and Brain BS, you can reduce a lot of needless suffering.
