It's hard to picture your active toddler moving out. But it happens faster than you can imagine. Letting go of our children as they venture into adulthood is a bittersweet journey that all parents must face. This transition involves understanding how children naturally seek independence, which is a necessary part of their development. As parents, our role changes too. We move from being needed to day-to-day tasks to prayer warriors, advisors, and supporters. It isn't a process of stepping back- it's about reshaping our relationships to respect their new-found status while continuing to offer unconditional love and trusted friends. How do you prepare to let your children go well? Today, I'm focusing on the heart of transformation, exploring the emotional and rewarding journey of letting go from a mom who has walked this path many times. I'll share real-life stories, expert insights, and practical advice to help you navigate the complex feelings of pride, loss, and love that come with watching your children grow into independent adults. Whether you are facing an empty nest, grappling with new career choices your child makes, or adjusting to their new life relationships, this episode can help you embrace this new chapter with confidence and joy.
