Do you ever think about 'What's next for me? When your kids go off to college or leave your home?
Perhaps you feel a little lost now that the kids have moved out, and are you ready to reclaim it?
In this episode of the Created To Thrive Podcast, host Lori K. Snyder is joined by special guest Ruthie Gray. Together, they discuss transitioning beyond the empty nest phase of life and how to discover one's passion and purpose. Whether you're a parent preparing for your children to leave for college or already navigating the empty nest, this episode offers valuable insights and guidance.
Ruthie Gray, an empty nester herself and a content marketing consultant for Christian entrepreneurs, shares her expertise and personal journey in finding meaning and fulfillment during this transformative phase. As the author of the book "Empty Nest Awakening: Weaving the Threads of Your Passion into Purpose," Ruthie offers comfort, guidance, and practical strategies for moms facing the empty nest stage.
From her own experience and working with other empty nest moms, Ruthie emphasizes the importance of taking small steps towards one's passions and allowing God to guide the way.
She encourages listeners to embrace their desires, trusting that God has planted those desires within them for a purpose. While it's common to seek clarity and purpose, Ruthie reminds us that it's okay not to have it all figured out. By giving ourselves the freedom to explore and create, we can discover how our passions and talents can be used for God's glory.
Join Lori and Ruthie as they explore the path to rekindling passion and purpose beyond the empty nest, offering practical advice and spiritual wisdom along the way. Get ready to thrive in this new season of life!
