Launching kids AND preparing empty nest parents the right way with Hanna Bankier E148

How is the nest empty if you're still living in it? That question from Hanna Bankier is why we brought her on this week. Hanna runs Birdie Launcher, helping parents navigate launching their kids, and themselves, into whatever comes next. Her focus isn't the packing list. It's the relationship that has to get rebuilt once the packing's done.

Hanna's website is a great place to start if any of this sounds familiar: https://www.birdylauncher.com/
