How are you navigating the complexities of parenting adult children? Whether your kids are newly stepping into independence, still living under your roof as adults, or raising kids of their own, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we sit down with Paul Church—a dad of four kids ranging from high school to married with a child of their own—to talk honestly about transitioning from active parenting to consulting, setting boundaries, and what it means to truly let go with grace.
