Hello !
No one really talks about this part of parenting. You raise them, nurture them, guide them through scraped knees and school projects, heartbreaks and triumphs — and then… they grow up.
But here’s the truth:
Just because your child is an older teen or legally an adult doesn’t mean your job is done. In fact, for many
mothers, parenting late teens and adult children can be the most emotionally complex season yet.
You're navigating:
- Watching them make choices you may not agree with
- Feeling needed one moment and dismissed the next
- Managing your own worries without becoming overbearing
- Figuring out when to speak up and when to stay quiet
- Supporting them financially or emotionally — while wondering if it’s helping or
enabling
And somewhere in the middle of it all, you’re redefining your own role — not as a fixer or a manager, but as a steady, supportive presence. That shift is no small thing. It takes grace, clarity, and often, support.
That’s why I’ve created something special...
I’m launching a 6-module online course designed for mothers like you — women walking the line between loving deeply and letting go, between being a
parent and learning how to be with their young adult child in a new way.
Over the course, we’ll explore:
- How to build trust and connection without overstepping
- What healthy boundaries look like with adult kids
- Grieving the “end” of hands-on parenting while celebrating new beginnings
- And how to care for yourself in the process
If this season feels confusing or even lonely — you are not
alone.
I'll be sharing more about the course in the coming weeks, but for now, I just wanted to say:
You're doing better than you think. And there’s no “perfect” way to mother a grown child — only a more peaceful, connected, and empowered one.
More soon,
