When your child is grown, the relationship changes and so does your role as mom.

In this episode, we explore what it really means to stay connected with your older or young adult child when the familiar dynamics no longer fit. Not from a place of control or fixing, but from calm presence, emotional maturity, and steadiness.

This conversation is for the mom who has spent years supporting, managing, planning, adjusting, and holding everything together and is now realizing that the role she once lived in so naturally feels different. Maybe quieter. Maybe uncertain. Maybe harder to name.

We talk about the subtle shift from protecting and mentoring to supporting and anchoring and why learning how to stay steady matters more than always having the right response. We explore how fear, over-accommodation, and the instinct to fix can quietly shape our decisions, and how letting life teach can build real resilience for both you and your child.

If you’ve ever wondered:

• What is my role now that my child is growing up?

• How do I stay connected without losing myself?

• How do I stop fixing and start leading with calm?

This episode offers reassurance, perspective, and a grounded reframe for this season of motherhood.

You are not behind. You are not failing. You are learning a new way to be mom and that matters.
