Welcome to the debut episode of People with Parents! The relationship with our parents is probably the most complicated` one we’ll have and yet no one ever teaches us how to navigate it, especially when our parents get old. People with Parents is the personal story telling podcast where can talk about, figure out, and laugh about the role reversal that happens between adult children and their aging parents.
