The Empty Nester Club
CONNECTION. CLARITY. COURAGE. COMMUNITY.
Let's define your next best chapter... together.
It’s about learning how to wake up excited again, feel whole in your own life, and discover that purpose doesn’t disappear when your kids leave—it finally has room to expand. Through my award-winning book The Almost Empty Nester and my 10-week transformational course, I guide women step-by-step from uncertainty to intention— without pressure, perfection, or pretending. You’ll reconnect with what lights you up now, create a meaningful rhythm to your days, and build a future that gently pulls you forward instead of leaving you stuck asking, “What now?”

Registration for our transformational Course opens February 1st.
This season isn’t about starting over—it’s about coming home to yourself.
You're in the right place.
