Modern Empty Nesting and the Revolving Door with Kari Cardinale

Empty nesting isn't what it used to be—kids boomerang, transitions can stretch a decade (wait, what?!?) , and parents need new tools. Kari Cardinale, Chief Content Officer at Modern Elder Academy and empty nest expert, reframes this messy middle with her "revolving decade" approach. Why do launches take so long now? How do you build your "transitional quotient" (TQ) for these uncertain years? What's the trick for shifting from manager to consultant parent? Kari shares the three developmental stages of young adulthood (18-28) and reveals how to embrace this chrysalis moment—messy middle and all—while giving your kids room to grow. Time to reimagine this chapter, beauties.
