You guys LOVED the Empty Nester Wisdom series – so we’ve got another one to add to that list. This time, it’s a couple I LOVE and adore. My former pastor and my mentor – they just happen to be married. The Hendersons have encouraged my life and helped guide me through some of the biggest decisions in my life, and I don’t say that lightly. They are often my first call when making a choice that would impact my family.
In this episode, we discuss their current life stage as empty nesters and their advice for other couples. We also chat about “what to do next” – how to make tough decisions as a united couple. And even, when to involve kids?
My favorite part is how they reflect on the things they prioritized as a family and why. They are both so super intentional and it has truly impacted the way I engage with my own kids.
