58. The After Party of the Empty Nest With Kate Battistelli

Join Charlotte and Kate Battistelli, speaker, author, podcaster, and mother to Christian singer Francesca Battistelli as they discuss the second act of the empty nest. Listen in and learn from Kate who’s also a grandmother to seven grandchildren. She’s also been a young actress in New York City in the early 80’s and toured with Yul Brynner with the production of The King and I. Kate and her husband, Mike, live in Franklin, Tennessee. She has much wisdom to share.
In her new book, The After Party of the Empty Nest, Kate reminds us that “Mom” is not our only name. This new season is a time to rediscover many hopes and dreams as well as the freedom to act on dreams deferred while raising children.
As you transition from mom to empty nest mom, take some time to ask yourself:

• Who am I now?
• What is my purpose now that my children are gone?
• What gifts and talents do I have to offer?
• What should my priorities be?
• How do I become something more than mom?

This second act of life offers a bright future, different from yourchildren’s but filled with hope and surprises! With the Lord’s help, you can walk fearlessly into it.
