Episode Details

Becoming a grandparent is one of the greatest blessings any parent can experience, but it also comes with some of the greatest challenges. 

If you've experienced this massive change, you may be feeling a mix of joy, anxiety and frustration as you navigate this new role - especially if you are still in the parent role as well. 

In this episode of "The Family Business with The Alessis," Mary and Steve Alessi share their experiences and insights on transitioning from parenting to becoming grandparents - all while continuing to guide their adult kids. 

 You'll learn about blessings and challenges that come with grandparenthood, the importance of passing down the family legacy, and the joy of being able to enjoy your grandchildren without the pressure of being disciplinarians. 

If you've struggled to make the switch being less hands on with your adult kids, you'll learn how to provide  trust and support for your children's parenting abilities as the Alessis offer advice on how to navigate the grandparenting journey.
