With one in three US adults ages eighteen to thirty-four still living at home, millions of parents face an emotionally complex stage no one prepared them for. In Lost in Place: How to Support, Motivate, and Launch an Adult Child, certified parent coach Kim Muench delivers secular, shame-free guidance rooted in professional coaching and her own lived experience navigating addiction and mental health challenges.

Lost in Place introduces a clear framework built around three elements parents can control: how they show up, what they provide, and how they respond. Through real-life case studies, relatable stories, and "Parent Points to Ponder" reflection prompts, the book helps listeners shift from fear-based reactions to confident, boundaried leadership. Listeners will also find:

• Tools for setting healthy financial boundaries when adult children rely on parental support for housing, groceries, and utilities
• Strategies to address mental health struggles, motivation gaps, and other barriers preventing emerging adults from gaining independence
• Guidance on replacing fear-based parenting reactions with calm, confident responses grounded in empathy
• Real-life scenarios and case studies that model effective communication between parents and their adult children
• Practical approaches for transforming family dynamics without resorting to tough-love ultimatums or shame-based tactics
