If you're a younger manager leading older employees — or stepping into a leadership role before you feel ready — this episode is your go-to guide.

I sat down with Julianne Fries and Amy Robertson of Cassia Life, two women who started in entry-level roles and are now shaping culture and leadership development across a multi-state senior care organization.

We talk honestly about what it’s like to:

• Build trust when you’re managing people older than you
• Lead teams with more experience than you — without faking it or shrinking
• Step into leadership roles early in your career (and thrive)
• Create workplace culture programs that improve retention and morale
• Support burned-out staff in healthcare through empathy and systems

This conversation is packed with real advice for young managers, especially women navigating leadership in senior care, healthcare, and intergenerational teams.

Whether you’re wondering how to earn respect as a younger boss, how to lead older team members with confidence, or how to build a culture people actually want to be part of — this episode delivers.
