Without headaches or hassles

Helping your aging parents can be a stressful and confusing time. With so many unknowns, it’s hard to even know what to google for answers! You can feel really alone as you navigate uncharted territory.

That’s perfectly normal.

As adult children, when imagining our parents as seniors, we can’t comprehend how their aging will affect them or us. We don’t like to think about our loved ones declining mentally or physically. However, preparing for this chapter with our parents can save us (and them) from a lot of stress. 

My guests Kim and Mike Barnes have first-hand experience in parenting aging parents. Listen in to discover how to tackle the emotional and practical challenges of being a caretaker. Plus, some important discussions that you should be having before you need them with your parents.
