MIDLIFE’S 10 THINGS!

Show Notes

Calling all midlifers! Today I’m reviewing my first year as a half-empty nest mom. Ugh! In this 15 min quickie, I have so many thoughts and questions that I know you’re probably having too… So, in the regular Flexible Neurotic style I’m getting honest and vulnerable in this solo mini-sode. With one kid (teen son) in college and the other finishing her junior year of high school, I’m feeling all the feels. This was a “year-of-firsts” (kid in college) in so many ways and next year will be another “year-of-lasts” (last high school prom), ugh again! Teen daughter will be graduating from high school. If you are a midlifer, empty-nester, and/or generally feeling like “WTF?” about midlife, this episode is definitely for you

Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken in a new solo episode called “Midlife’s 10 Things”. In this episode I am recapping my ten “take aways” from my first year as a half empty-nester. I’m getting into all the questions I ask myself on a daily basis, including why is my kid not texting me back? And am I over ordering on Amazon as a coping mechanism? Yep, we’re getting real today. Get ready for the Midlife 10 Things, you won’t want to miss this mini-sode.
