Barbara and Susan's Guide to the Empty Nest: Discovering New Purpose, Passion, & Your Next Great Adventure (Hardback)

You're done ... but you're not finished! And one more thing. You're not alone. Feeling unsure? Scared? Expectant? Maybe even giddy? Is your nest empty—except for a bundle of mixed emotions?

Many women in this season of life wonder: Who am I now? And what should I do? How will my marriage be affected? Does anyone need me? How do I relate to my children? Is it okay to feel sad? Or thrilled? What's next?
