Midlife Moms Episode 2: When Your Kids Need You Less
Your kids need you less, and it feels a bit like heartbreak. Lisa and Katharina talk about what comes after the caregiving years.
Hi, friends! Today the second episode of "Midlife Moms, the podcast from StadtLandMama" is out. What's it about this week? When your kids become more independent, it can feel a lot like heartbreak. Lisa talks about the crisis of meaning she went through and how she responded with new responsibilities and commitments. Katharina, meanwhile, is still deep in the day-to-day of caring for her youngest.
We talk about the different paths women take in their forties, the pressure to optimize ourselves, and how we want to get older. You'll also hear about mail from the German military for our big kids, Halloween without a scary costume, and music from our teenage years.
Empty nest and midlife: What comes after the caregiving years? We share personal experiences of midlife, somewhere between saying goodbye, new possibilities, and a daily routine that sometimes fills right back up.
