A Conversation with Allie Hill, Author of The Girlfriend's Guide to Empty Nesting

After her daughter left for college, Allie Hill was shocked to find she felt lonely, a bit lost and a little purposeless. Allie spent months wondering what she was supposed to do with all her free time now that no one needed her 24/7 as a parent. She marveled that there were so many resources available when her daughter Izzy was a baby, but none for mothers making the transition to empty nesting, despite the fact that 22.2 million people become empty nesters every year in the U.S.

Eventually, Allie figured out how to re-define her purpose which, for her, meant getting back to writing, launching a blog, becoming a certified coach, and feeling happy and fulfilled again. This is when she decided to become the resource for Empty Nest moms who struggled in the same ways she did. Allie is now the author of The Girlfriend’s Guide to Empty Nesting, as well as a life coach and speaker helping moms navigate their next chapter after the kids leave home. Her book tour has started in Colorado.

Allie Hill spent 15+ years as a journalist, working for AP Radio in London, was the West Coast editor at Daily News Record, and is a certified DesireMap Facilitator for author/speaker Danielle LaPorte. She’s earned life coaching certifications from both The Life Coach School and Oprah's life coach, Martha Beck. Allie’s been featured on national television, is regularly interviewed on a variety of podcasts, and shares her knowledge in workshops and trainings throughout the United States.

Becoming a life coach reinvigorated her entire life. She helps her clients who struggle with a loss of identity after becoming empty nesters, and assists them in finding a new life purpose. "This is my time," Allie says, and she helps others believe in themselves and pursue their new life chapters with joy, as well. "How do you want to show up in every situation?" Allie asks. We can set intentions for each thing that we do, every day, and maybe a bit differently when our intense periods of everyday parenting have ended.
