Samenvatting:

PRAISE FOR Life After Kids

“This book felt like a deep breath for every mom stepping into the next chapter of midlife and motherhood. As a mom of 3 teens (one leaving for college very soon), I felt seen on every page. Lynne and Brooke capture the bittersweet moments of midlife, letting go and rediscovering who you are beyond motherhood. As a beauty influencer and author, I know the importance of reinvention—and this book is a reminder it’s never too late to grow into the most vibrant version of yourself.”
—LAUREN HALE, influencer, author and mom of 3 teens

“Life After Kids is a powerful and refreshing guide that reminds women they’re not fading—they’re just getting started. This book beautifully empowers mothers to rediscover themselves and step into the next chapter with confidence, clarity, and joy.”
—KIYA TOMLIN, fashion designer, founder of Kiya Tomlin Collection, and advocate for Empowering Women Through Style

The mom's guide to finding happiness, hope, fulfillment, and self-love as an empty nester

For moms everywhere, Life After Kids: Rediscover Yourself and Thrive Beyond Motherhood is an essential guide to becoming an empty nester. When your child leaves home for new opportunities, it's hard to adjust to their absence. This book provides a roadmap to navigating this transitional life stage, filled with wisdom on finding new opportunities, focusing on developing your emotional and mental health, managing feelings of anxiety, loneliness, and uncertainty, and preparing to welcome a new phase of parenting as kids grow older and more independent.

Written by Brooke Stillwell and Lynne Mouw, two health and wellness experts with decades of experience helping women maximize their potential and find fulfillment, this book helps readers understand concepts like:

• Why continuing to pour even more of your heart and soul into your grown kids' lives is often a step backwards
• Why women thrive as empty nesters through building emotional resilience: letting go of things you cannot control, and instead focusing on things you can control
• Why finding more purpose, rather than accumulating material possessions or indulging in leisurely activities and pastimes, is the only real way forward

For all mothers looking to embrace life now that the kids are grown, Life After Kids: Rediscover Yourself and Thrive Beyond Motherhood is the perfect practical, supportive guide to finding hope and fulfillment in a new parenting era.
