    When you're in the second half of life -- which you definitely are as an empty nester -- it's time to have some important financial conversations.

    Show Notes In this episode, my guest is Randy Free. Randy is an executive life coach for men and a mentor to adolescent males. With his education in Masters of Counseling, Randy has a unique perspective of the challenges teens face, how their minds work, and how we as parents can better understand and communicate with them. I thought this conversation was especially valuable for empty nester parents who may be looking for ways to improve the relationships they have with your young adults. Randy is an empty nester parent himself, made a big career pivot from being a partner in a global accounting firm to following his passion of service, and we talk about the mindset you need when starting over. We also talk about how to better understand our young adults, and specific ways we can deescalate tension and improve our communication with them. And we talk about how it’s never too late to heal relationships with our kids, and a powerful question we can ask of ourselves to ensure that our actions align with our intentions.
