S2#003 And Then There Were None
With two children, the personality is facing a major turning point as the youngest graduates from high school and the family starts walking their own separate paths. This time, we look back slowly and honestly at the feelings surrounding the changes in everyday life.
The new reality of living apart from family has arrived.
We talk about the slightly lonely situation of a home that was full just a few weeks ago, but is now empty. Following the son's graduation, with the husband and son heading to Thailand and the start of a period of living apart—reminiscent of past experiences—the host shares frank thoughts on the busy days passing by.
Reflections on parental preparation and a child's growth.
We discuss the mental preparation unique to this moment, which feels different from when the daughter moved away three years ago. Like with the daughter, even if one thinks they are prepared as a parent, there is still the inevitable loneliness and complex parental emotions that come with a child's growth. Along the way, a conversation with family sparked new insights into how to relate to children in the future; please listen to the full episode to hear more.
