Dr. Debby Sharpe Smith thought she was prepared for the empty nest, but when it arrived, it brought emotions she didn't expect. Through honest conversations, deep spiritual formation work, and leading groups of empty-nest women each year, she discovered she wasn't alone. Her journey led her to write OPEN NEST, a Bible study designed to help women explore identity, faith, and community in midlife. Her heart is to remind women that their identity is rooted in Christ, NOT in roles that shift with seasons. Debby is Texas-born, but a traveler at heart, having lived in New Jersey, London, Mombasa, and Keiv. On the theory that everyone has a superpower, hers might be making order out of chaos. She will pick beaches over mountains, tulips over daisies, musicals over concerts, dark over milk (chocolate), Tex-Mex over Thai, sunsets over sunrises, and walking with a friend over any other form of exercise. Debby has three adult children and one daughter-in-law and lives in Dallas, TX, with her husband. You can contact her at www.open-nest.com. Debby's book can be purchased through Amazon.
