Emptying the Nest: Getting Better at Goodbyes, is about change, identity, and mental healthWhen Morgan Baker’s daughter, Maggie, left for college during the same year the family parted with nine puppies from a litter they raised, Morgan collapsed into a deep depression. She eventually adjusted and, with a lot of help, did better when her younger daughter left for school. By the time Maggie graduated from college and moved to LA with her boyfriend, Morgan was ready. She prepared by focusing on herself, and what she wanted. With that, her identity shifted. (Ten16 Press, May 2, 2023).
