Plus, I’ll share a free workbook I created just for you called Letting Go, Moving Forward—a thoughtful guide to help you realign with what matters most in this new season of your life.

Empty nesters, it’s time to stop clinging to the roles that no longer serve you—and start rewriting your story with confidence and clarity. In this powerful episode, PK gets real about the guilt so many women feel when it’s time to let go of who they’ve always been: the over-giver, the self-sacrificer, the invisible one.

PK shares heartfelt stories, personal insights, and actionable strategies to help you:
💔 Release guilt around stepping away from the parenting role
💫 Reconnect with your passions and long-lost dreams
📝 Create a “release ritual” to symbolically let go of outdated identities
💪 Replace guilt with permission—to grow, evolve, and prioritize YOU

This is your invitation to take up space, rediscover your joy, and boldly step into the next chapter of your life—without apology.
