196. Who Am I Now? Finding Yourself in the Empty Nest Season

When the house gets quiet, who are you now? In this heart-to-heart episode, I'm opening up about my first month after dropping my daughter off at college: new rhythms, dinners for two, solo picnics in the San Francisco fog, a growing stack of rom-coms, and the surprising joy of rediscovering myself while still being very much a mom. Whether you're an empty nester or in any season of change, this conversation is your gentle permission slip to stop feeling lost and start getting curious about who you're becoming.
✍️ Write for Christian Moms Café


Christian Moms Café is relaunching this October as a digital magazine for Christian women, with thoughtful, honest conversations about faith, motherhood, identity, wellness, purpose, and relationships. We're looking for guest writers to join us. If you're a woman of faith with a story to share, wisdom you've gathered along the way, or a message on your heart, we'd love to hear from you. You don't need to be a published author. You just need a voice and a willingness to share it.
