566: 54.07 Jennifer Petriglieri - The third transition - Who are we now?

NUGGET CONTEXT
Jennifer speaks about the third transition that couples often face often when they are empty nesters and when they have exhausted the gunpowder in their artillery. They now take stock of life and say “Who are we now” and what is the purpose behind our existence.

In our conversation, we get into the details of the key questions around the three transitions that Jennifer speaks about that most couples go through. Transition 1) "How do we make it work" when we move from parallel tracks to a single track. Transition 2)"What do we want to become" as couples navigate mid-life. Transition 3) "Who are we” as a couple.
