Doing Life With Your Adult Kids with Jim Burns | Episode 107

It can be hard to transition from actively parenting your children to doing life alongside them once they become adults. Whether you are quickly approaching this season or are currently in it, I want you to know that you can experience a richer, deeper, more fulfilling life (and relationship with your kids) than ever before.

My guest, Jim Burns, not only writes and speaks on strong marriages, confident parenting, and empowering kids, but he is also the author of Finding Joy in the Empty Nest and Doing Life With Your Adult Children. Jim is passionate about combining his personal experience of becoming an empty-nester with extensive research to help others navigate their own journey into this new stage of life.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How to support and accept your kids even if they don’t embrace your values.
• The importance of having new experiences in the empty nest season of life
• Tips for handling “boomerang” children
• Why you have to let your kids make mistakes
• How to use this season to rediscover your passions

This topic is SO important, and Jim does such a great job speaking to the heart of parents in this season of life. Listen in!
