Asking the Questions

Empty Nesting. It’s a time of questions. They come from everywhere and what quickly becomes clear – there aren’t answers. Yet.

Here’s what I want you to know more than anything right now: You have permission to ask all.the.questions. All of them.

The most important thing you can do is give yourself space in your life to notice the questions.

Create that space in whatever way you need to.

It’s essential that you create a pause, a stillness in your life, to be able to hear them.

Daily meditation and journaling.

A quiet weekend retreat by yourself or facilitated by someone.

A solo trip that will allow reflection time.

The questions won’t be handed to you in a neat and tidy little workbook.

They will flow into your life when it’s time for you to hear them.

They will be different for each one of you.

 

What are you supposed to do with all the questions?

Receive them.

Notice them.

Collect them.

Record them.

Trust that they are flowing in because they’re important for you to ask.

Trust that you might not yet understand why they’re important to ask.

Don’t rush to find answers or resolution. Be patient.

Trust that you will eventually know which ones to answer first.


Your empty nest path will unfold with time. I promise you. But for right now, start with the questions.

If the very first thing you notice is “what if I can’t hear the questions?”, I can help. I just created a new way for us to work together: Pause – Reflect – Reconnect. It’s a two-call guided process, creating a space to focus on you. Only you. It’s a space for you to start asking what you really want in your life going forward. Not should want, but really want. We’ll walk through the calls together with me fully supporting you. You’ll bring any questions you already have, I’ll add some that I believe can be helpful. It will give you a place to start.

Because … we’re all in this empty nesting time of our lives together, and community and support is exactly what you need right now. I can’t wait to meet you!
