Send Jay comments via textFeeling lost now that your nest has emptied? You're not alone—but that silence in your home doesn't have to be the end of your story. Instead, it can be the opening note to your most authentic chapter yet. In this transformative episode, we explore how major life changes—like empty nesting, career shifts, or personal reinvention—are rooted in who we want to become, not just how we'll do it. Through relatable stories like Lisa, who questioned if binge-watching Netflix was her new purpose, and John, who believed he was “too old to start over,” we see how the stories we tell ourselves shape our experiences during these shifts.What makes this approach different? It's all about doing the inner work first. Before rushing into activities or projects, we examine the beliefs, fears, and identities that might be keeping us stuck. Guided by Carol Dweck's research on mindset, we learn to shift from a fixed mindset (“I'm only a parent”) to a growth mindset (“Who can I become now?”).You'll get practical prompts to uncover limiting beliefs, embrace vulnerability as your strength, and celebrate small wins that propel you forward. Rediscover passions you shelved, and open the door to unexpected joy and purpose.Remember George Eliot's words: "It's never too late to be what you might have been." Whether you're navigating an empty nest or other life transitions, this episode will help you move from simply watching life unfold to actively directing your next chapter.Download the free companion guide at bit.ly/whobeforehow and start your journey of rediscovery today. Your best self is waiting—are you ready to meet them?Key Highlights & Takeaways:True transformation begins within—your beliefs, identity, and emotions set the foundation.Your emotional reactions are messages revealing the stories you tell yourself.Adopting a growth mindset opens doors to new possibilities.Vulnerability is essential—acknowledging fears creates space for growth.Small, intentional actions can lead to profound mindset shifts.Focus on the "who" before the "how" to build a sustainable, authentic future.Reinvention is accessible—anyone willing to believe in their potential.Take the first step toward your next chapter—download the worksheet and start redefining your story today!Support the showFREE WORKBOOK3 Steps to Loving Your Empty Nest Life ENJOY THE SHOW?Don't miss an episode, subscribe via Apple Podcasts or follow on Spotify and many more.

Anna & Marty compare shared hybrid life/LTC plans with separate LTC plans for each of them. It's a matter of preference and goals. The LTC and death benefit are directly related, so plans with higher LTC benefits have larger death benefits. The death benefit acts as a return of premium if care isn't needed. The key differences in shared and individual plans is who can use the LTC benefits and for how long, who can be beneficiary, and when does the death benefit pay? Listen and learn how these plans differ and what Anna and Marty decided.

And so the friction, one of the first things I tell couples which you just said something like Oh, we have conflict is that it's actually a good sign. It's not a bad sign. It depends on how you handle the friction and the conflict but we're the premise is that we're here to grow and that's what keeps the true spark is an element of being invested in your partner's growth and true care and respect for them as a human being.

In this episode of The Horizon with John Chang, John interviews economist John E. Silvia to discuss economic outlook and housing market trends. Silvia shares insights on consumer sentiment improvement and housing affordability challenges, particularly in coastal markets. They explore how high interest rates, construction costs, and labor shortages are impacting housing supply, with Silvia noting significant regional disparities in affordability. The conversation covers rental housing trends, with particular focus on Sun Belt markets experiencing high supply growth but strong absorption. They discuss the emergence of build-to-rent models and alternative housing options like townhouses and condos as solutions to housing shortages. Silvia predicts continued strong housing demand over the next 5-10 years but expects construction to remain in "second gear" relative to historical levels, maintaining the current housing shortage of 3-5 million units.

The "silver tsunami" of aging Americans is often seen as a potential way to alleviate the country's housing affordability woes. However, the data suggests that an influx of empty-nester homes coming on the market won't have much of an impact on the problem—because of a geographical mismatch. Today on the show, we speak to an economist who's looked into the silver tsunami's impact on the housing market and thinks this theory might be more of a red herring.This episode was fact checked by Sierra Juarez Related episodes:The graying of AmericaWhat would it take to fix retirement?How big is the US housing shortage?The highs and lows of US rentsFor sponsor-free episodes of The Indicator from Planet Money, subscribe to Planet Money+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.Music by Drop Electric.

First up, Viagra—why do men have an instant fix with that little blue pill, but women are still waiting for something to help with their libido? We're also breaking down the empty nester myth: do couples really heat things up once the kids are gone, or is it just wishful thinking?

We all know it's coming one day, but how do we best prepare for it? The moment the household goes quiet, and suddenly there's less chaos and dependencies surrounding you. Maybe it's the kids becoming adults and setting off on their own, or maybe it's early retirement, but we all reach that day where you look around and realize you're in a transition and your everyday normal starts to slow down and change. That's exactly what client turned coach Michele Canon is here to talk about this week: how to focus on goals and prioritize your wellness in this new phase of life. Michele tried it all, keto and fasting and cardio and all the things that are supposed to help you stay lean and feel your best, but through her own muscle building transformation and after taking Jenny's STRONG Formula coaching certification program, she learned that the Strong Girls methodology was the best process for truly achieving that X-Frame physique and also led her to accomplish her own goals of getting published in STRONG Fitness Magazine and becoming a women's fitness coach herself; focusing on building programs that are designed for aging women and empty nesters, proving that wellness doesn't “end” as we age, in fact it can truly begin and you can thrive at any age!

First, Adam welcomes comedian Chad Daniels back to the show to talk about his new Netflix special Empty Nester, as they get into the passive and active trauma their parents passed onto them, how Chad has a dedicated promise to always tell the truth, how peanut butter and its counterparts have become a metaphor for life, and the new complex world of female vibrators. Then, Leah Knauer joins the show as the three discuss being able to know a person by the stickers on the back of their car and Adam's pitch for a gimp mascot for the NFL. Leah reads the news, which includes former LA mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announcing his candidacy for California governor, a humpback whale breaching on & capsizing a fishing boat off the New Hampshire coast, the booming business of AI Boyfriends, and zoo gorillas needing a limit on their screen time. Finally, Adam and Chad Daniels finish out the show by proposing to Leah their approach to applying reasonable gum laws to this country, limiting high capacity gum packs, applying licenses for gum purchases, and making sure you keep your gum protected behind a gum safe.
