Living the Empty Nest - A life beyond mothering

When the children leave home, what happens next?

From rural Australia's red dust roads to suburban homes' quiet kitchens, Living the Empty Nest gives voice to one of life's least acknowledged transitions.
Dr Teresa O'Brien explores life's emotional and cultural realities beyond active mothering, celebrating a stage rich with purpose, freedom, and renewal.
Drawing on her own experience of raising three daughters on a Western Australian farm and the stories of women from across Australia and beyond, O'Brien sheds light on a time too often lived in silence. She offers holistic insight and practical wisdom for navigating such significant life changes, from loneliness and identity to reclaiming purpose through work, travel, grandparenting, and the legacies we choose to create.
Whether you are waving goodbye for the first time or facing a newly quiet home, O'Brien reminds us that what looks like an ending is when life begins again.
A wise and compassionate companion for anyone standing at the edge of change.
