Many parents today find themselves in the sandwich generation where stress, guilt and burnout is real.

My guest today, Michele Magner, has earned her MBA and Master's certification in gerontology and is a Gerontology PhD student at the University of Nebraska Omaha. She's a certified life coach, certified dementia practitioner, and certified conscious aging facilitator and an adjunct professor in the fall of 2024.
 
As an experienced family caregiver with many years in the senior living industry, she understands the challenges that you are facing as you care for those you love.
 
Our conversation included dissecting how we are managing stress, how core values play into our capacity and integrity, why it's okay to fill your cup just for you, and the difference between making promises and making plans.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVERED...

• Michele's vulnerable example of "failing" her daughter and the powerful realizations she took from it
• The 3 "C's" all caregivers need
• The Importance of bringing your kids into hard conversations

DON'T MISS-

• Fascinating research around the relationship between chronological age and subjective age, and its effect on aging
