Kim Albrecht knows what the sandwich generation feels like. She has been her 18-year-old daughter’s primary caregiver since Miranda was born and she helps care for her mom who is living with dementia.

Kim is a southerner transplanted to California via the Midwest along with her husband and 2 teenage daughters, the oldest of which has level 3 nonspeaking autism. Kim hosts the award winning LOMAH Disability Podcast, where over 150 expert guests have been interviewed on topics relevant to planning the future for teens and young adults with disabilities. 

In this episode, we talk about how Kim and her husband are preparing Miranda for adulthood and living independently from her parents, Kim’s gratitude for some tough feedback from trusted individuals that shaped her current caregiving mindset, how she recovered from caregiver burnout, and why every caregiver may need to purchase some construction worker headphones.
