Send Jay comments via textWhat if your most profound life lessons could come from an unexpected journey? In this inspiring episode, I explore how my recent walk along the Camino de Santiago in Spain became a powerful metaphor for navigating the empty nest years—filled with surprises, deep connections, and personal growth.Walking the Portuguese route with strangers from around the world pushed me beyond my comfort zone, revealing that the richest experiences often come from embracing detours rather than rushing to the finish line. When faced with a challenging climb, a simple question from a friend—"What's the rush?"—became a guiding wisdom for embracing the present moment.The true magic of the Camino was found in the connections formed along the way. Brief conversations with fellow pilgrims sparked feelings of transformation, and our nightly ritual of sharing a "crumb" (challenge) and "cookie" (joy) strengthened resilience and gratitude—key components proven to boost mental well-being during major transitions.Through rain and sunshine, I discovered that each traveler brought unique "superpowers," from authenticity to embracing new experiences, inspiring me to pursue my dreams while savoring life's small moments. This journey taught me that necessary endings—like children leaving home or finishing a long walk—create space for new beginnings.What's your Camino? Whether it's a new hobby, career change, or inner exploration, your next big adventure awaits. Take that first step—your most meaningful journey might be just around the corner.When you're ready to craft a fulfilling new chapter, visit thisemptynestlife.com to learn how I can support you in designing a life full of purpose and joy.Highlights & Key Takeaways:Embrace detours over rushing — slowing down creates space for growth.Deepen connections through shared vulnerability and gratitude practices.Recognize the unique strengths ("superpowers") each person brings to your journey.Mindfulness in everyday moments fuels profound self-discovery.Necessary endings open doors for exciting new beginnings.Join me on this journey of self-discovery, and maybe find your own Camino to fulfillment.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.

This week on the Joycast, I'm sharing the story of Sarah Lang Schroeder. She's a pet photographer who spent over a decade dabbling while juggling a full-time job.

Send Jay comments via textWhat happens to long-term relationships when the kids leave home? In this candid conversation, relationship coach Dr. Marie Murphy shares her insightful and judgment-free perspective on the growing phenomenon of gray divorce—the trend of couples separating after the age of 50. With her PhD in sociology of sexuality, Dr. Murphy challenges conventional views on infidelity and relationship transitions. She emphasizes the importance of being honest with ourselves about what we truly want: “Do you want to reconnect, or do you just think you should want to reconnect?” This distinction lies at the heart of our discussion and leads to deeper explorations of relationship dynamics during midlife.Highlights:Understanding gray divorce: 40% of divorces now occur after age 50, often linked to infidelity.The role of intentional curiosity in revitalizing relationships and fostering deeper connections.The dilemma of feeling responsible for others' emotions and how it conflicts with cultural ideas of individualism.Empowering thoughts that help you navigate your relationship choices without guilt or shame.Key Takeaways:Approaching infidelity with a non-judgmental mindset allows for clearer decision-making.The sociology of sexuality focuses on understanding actual behaviors in relationships rather than adhering to societal norms.Making relationship choices often involves balancing competing desires rather than straightforward right or wrong decisions.Marie Murphy's BioDr. Marie Murphy is a non-judgmental infidelity coach, and the host of the podcast Your Secret is Safe with Me. Much of the so-called advice out there for people who are engaging in infidelity is little more than thinly veiled judgment, but that's not what Marie provides. Marie offers guidance and support that respects the fullness of your humanity, and the complexity of your situation - no matter what you're doing in the infidelity department.

Send Jay comments via textJoin us for a heartfelt conversation with Julie Voris as we explore the profound and often overlooked transition to empty nesting—a journey that many parents experience but few openly discuss. In a society lacking cultural roadmaps and generational models, this phase can leave parents feeling lost and uncertain about their purpose once their children become independent.Julie shares her personal path of moving from Indiana to Florida while her three daughters embarked on their own independent lives across the country. She reveals a crucial insight: the initial empty nesting phase, when children leave for college, is merely a rehearsal for the deeper transition that occurs when they achieve full autonomy—landing jobs, forming significant relationships, and making major life decisions without parental input.Highlights:Emotional complexities during this transition, experiencing simultaneous feelings of pride, sadness, confusion, and excitement.The empty nest phase as an opportunity for personal growth and identity reclamation.The importance of seeking professional support and building a fulfilling life that fosters healthier relationships with adult children.Key Takeaways:Recognize that college is just a "dress rehearsal" for true empty nesting, where autonomy presents the biggest challenges.Understand that feelings of confusion and sadness are common and should not be isolated or ashamed.Strive to be the kind of person your adult children want to be around, demonstrating the value of self-improvement.Julie Voris BioJulie Voris is a Mindset + Habits coach for women who are done getting lost in the minutiae, tired of playing small, and “so over” asking for permission. She helps them to tap into the power of habits to create more impact & income while serving as inspiring role models for their family. When Julie isn't dishing truth, hope & energy to her audience, you can find her soaking in the magic at Walt Disney World in Florida, where she and her husband recently moved, making a lifelong dream come true, as well as traveling to see their three amazing daughters, and buying too many books in a local bookstore.
