Families across the country are facing a perfect storm: aging parents with increasingly complex medical needs, skyrocketing care costs, and fewer available caregivers. In this episode of Get Ready for Better Aging, host Jacqui Clark is joined by senior care advisors Scott Fischer, RN, owner of Options for Senior Living in Arizona, and Cameron Crawford, founder of Aging Parent Tribe and Next Step Senior Placement in Colorado.

Together, they unpack how senior care has changed post-COVID, why memory care and home care costs are crushing families, and how adult children—often juggling careers, kids, and multiple aging parents—are reaching burnout fast. The conversation dives into caregiver shortages, resistance to help, falls, planning before crisis, and the growing need for ethical, trained placement professionals.

If you’re caring for aging parents—or know you will be—this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical guidance you don’t want to miss.

We talk a lot about aging—but not nearly enough about how to live fully as we age. In this powerful episode of Get Ready for Better Aging, host Jacqui Clark sits down with Kelly Winsler, founder of Have a Seat Yoga and a pioneer in seated, accessible yoga for adults 50+. Kelly’s journey began with a metastatic cancer diagnosis that led her to yoga—not as exercise, but as a lifeline for healing, strength, and reinvention.

What started as a personal recovery practice grew into a mission to bring movement and breath to seniors, caregivers, and people often excluded from traditional wellness spaces. Kelly shares the science behind breathwork, why yoga is truly for every body, and why she believes the second half of life is a time of expansion—not decline. She also introduces Second 50, her new app and digital platform designed as a longevity-focused “online magazine,” offering inspiration, education, and tools to help people thrive physically, mentally, and spiritually in their next chapter.

A dementia diagnosis doesn’t just change one life—it reshapes an entire family. In this powerful episode of Get Ready For Better Aging, host Jacqui Clark sits down with Libby Allman, Board Certified Behavior Analyst and founder of Align Family Solutions, to talk about what families really face after the diagnosis. Drawing from both her professional expertise and her personal journey caring for her father with dementia, Libby sheds light on the behaviors, burnout, grief, and role reversals caregivers experience every day.

Together, Jacqui and Libby explore why a diagnosis often comes without guidance, how behavior-focused support can transform daily life, and what caregivers need most in those overwhelming early weeks. They discuss driving, incontinence, sleep disruption, and the quiet guilt so many caregivers carry—along with practical, compassionate strategies that move families from survival mode into clarity and confidence.

This episode is a lifeline for anyone caring for someone with dementia—and a reminder that help does exist.

In this powerful episode of Get Ready for Better Aging, host Jacqui Clark welcomes estate planning attorney Anna Howard of AC Howard Law to break down what estate planning really means—and why it matters for everyone, not just the wealthy. Together they unpack the “emergency documents” every adult should have, including healthcare directives and powers of attorney, and reveal the real-world consequences of putting planning off.

From costly probate and family conflict to heartbreaking cases like Terri Schiavo, Anna explains how failing to plan can leave loved ones in crisis. The conversation also spotlights why women are uniquely vulnerable, especially when they’re left in the dark about finances or legal authority as partners decline.

With practical guidance, clear language, and eye-opening examples, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to protect their wishes, their family, and their legacy—before it’s too late.

In this episode, Jacqui Clark sits down with veteran elder care manager Kira Reginato, a deeply experienced professional who has spent decades helping families navigate one of life’s most overwhelming chapters—caring for aging loved ones. Together, they unpack one of the most misunderstood roles in the senior care world: the Aging Life Care Manager, also known as a geriatric or elder care manager.

Kira explains the difference between hospital case managers and community care managers, the trigger moments that prompt families to seek help, and why most people wait far too long to bring in professional support. She shares real insights into dementia-related challenges, caregiver overwhelm, driving safety, and how care managers quietly become lifelines for both older adults and their families.

Through compassionate guidance, practical strategy, and years of hard-won wisdom, Kira shows why having the right care manager can change everything.

They unpack therapeutic use, microdosing, strategies, and real-world guidance for families. Plus, they discuss the future of cannabis in healthcare and the critical role of nurses in bridging conventional medicine with plant-based therapies.

What does it really take to age safely at home? In this episode of Get Ready for Better Aging, host Jacqui Clark sits down with Fritzi Gros-Daillon, co-founder of Age Safe America and an expert in home safety and aging-in-place design.

Together, they explore how small, proactive changes—like better lighting, wider doorways, and thoughtful bathroom design—can help older adults maintain independence and prevent the falls that send one in three seniors to the ER each year.

From “beach entry” showers to motion-sensor lighting, discover how planning today creates freedom tomorrow.

In this episode, host Jacqui Clark sits down with Lisa Tyburski, Chief Marketing Officer of the George G. Glenner Alzheimer’s Family Centers, to explore the extraordinary legacy of Dr. George and Joy Glenner. What began as a desperate midnight call from an overwhelmed caregiver grew into a nationwide model for dementia care.

Lisa shares how the Glenner Centers pioneered adult day programs that give people living with dementia safe, engaging spaces while providing caregivers much-needed respite. The conversation also highlights the groundbreaking creation of Town Square—an immersive 1950s-style community complete with a diner, movie theater, and vintage car—that uses reminiscence therapy to spark joy and connection.

From Dr. Glenner’s landmark discovery linking beta amyloid protein to Alzheimer’s research to the expansion of franchised Town Squares across the country, this episode shines a light on a legacy of hope, innovation, and compassion for families navigating dementia.

This poignant episode is a heartfelt exploration of love, loss, and what it truly means to show up for someone in their final chapter. Host Jacqui Clark sits down with Frank Cunningham — elder care consultant, placement specialist, and RCFE license holder — who not only helps families navigate senior living but has lived this journey himself. Frank shares the deeply personal story of moving into assisted living while his wife, Judy, entered memory care, the challenges of advocating for her care, and the profound spiritual experience of being present at her passing.

Together, Jacqui and Frank discuss resilience, grief, and what Frank calls “soul work” — the calling to serve families through one of life’s hardest transitions. This conversation is raw, honest, and ultimately full of hope, offering comfort to anyone walking a similar path.
