Our lives with children were often overflowing with activities, helping and nurturing. Sometimes there was room for little else!
As the nest empties, some breathing space opens up. You can begin to build in the components of a full life after family life.
What does it look like for you? An encore career, perhaps. Or travel. You may be thinking through your new purpose in life and excavating passions that suit you.
It is a time of adventure and exploration, for sure!
