About this listen
Is empty nesting getting a bad rap? Today on Life After Launch, we’re exploring why this phase is so underrated and how to navigate its unique challenges and opportunities.
Today, I chat with Anthony Damaschino, an author and expert on all things empty nesting. We explore why empty nesting isn't discussed enough as its own distinct life stage and the surprising statistics around things like divorce in this phase. Anthony shares his personal experiences and the research that led him to write two books on the topic.
We delve into the "empty nest threat," which Anthony breaks down into the four D's: depression, disownment, divorce, and drift. It's a sobering look at the potential pitfalls, but we also discuss how awareness and proactive steps can make this a time of reinvention and growth.
Key Takeaways from Today’s Episode:
👉 Acknowledging empty nesting as a unique phase
👉 Be aware of potential challenges
👉 Reinvest in your relationship
👉 Single parents: prioritize self-care
👉 It's never too late to reinvent yourself
👉 Community support is essential
