Caught somewhere between the duties of parenting and caring for aging parents? You're not alone. Meet Christy Yates, a true guide for anyone navigating this challenging stage, popularly known as the 'sandwich generation'. Having walked this path herself, Christy draws from her personal journey and her expertise in supporting caregiving families to share some valuable insights. She discusses how her experience of caring for her own parents while raising teenagers inspired her to help others on the same path.
But it's not just about balancing the tightrope of responsibilities. Christy emphasizes the importance of those tough end-of-life discussions and the art of clear communication to make this journey smoother. And then there's the tricky task of explaining death to kids. Christy guides us through this sensitive topic with honesty and empathy, reminding us that it's okay to feel a mix of emotions. Moreover, she highlights the role of schools in supporting families and the vital lines of communication between parents, schools, and caregivers. Learn from Christy's insightful conversation, as she shares strategies, offers support, and encourages self-care in the midst of it all.
