Destination Midlife is Where Life Really Begins
As Empty Nesters we are facing lots of challenges, but the one thing I want you to remember is to embrace living life in the Middle. Here at Destination Midlife, we are learning to not only survive but to bloom in the Middle and embrace our new normal. While we may have Empty Nest Syndrome at first, we will learn to enjoy the phone calls from our now adult children.
Children leave home and our life no longer rotates on their schedules. Embracing the middle-aged living in a unique way that only parents get to experience. Remember we were training them their whole lives to be responsible adults, and productive citizens, now we have to mourn the sense of loss, pick ourselves up off the floor and live life to the fullest. So join me as we embrace Empty Nest Living and all things Destination Midlife.
Here’s a snapshot of the things you can expect.
Travel
Travel – Traveling without kids is now your new normal which means you will get to explore more exciting places. Join us as we travel into the middle years spending more time with our significant other and refinding ourselves.
Empty Nest
The kid(s) are gone, now what?? Party like it is 1990, or before, yes it is sad, but it’s also time to stretch your wings and learn to fly again. Enjoy the journey and enjoy the midlife living as we do here at Destination of Midlife.
