In this episode, host @brookeljames speaks with @libbybrittain, founder of Quilt, on the in's and out's of caregiving. Did you know that 34 million people in the United States provide unpaid care to someone over 50? And 6 in 10 of those 34 million are doing that while working a full-time job? and 1 in 4 of those 34 people are millennials. Brooke and Libby talk about their own caregiving experiences, how Libby deciding to found quilt, her coaching business to advise those who are caregivers to their parents, and the emotional rollercoaster that is caregiving. 

Libby provides helpful strategies in how to have discussions with your parents and siblings around caregiving, and how to reframe things for yourself so you don't get overwhelmed while caregiving. We also talk about #coronavirus and how for a lot of us it's a preview into what caring for our parents is like.
