020 - Putting the 'Care' in Caregiving

Remember when I said that taking away your parent's driver's license was a big one? How about cleaning out their house? That's a big one.

Well, this episode just might win the award for one of the bigger moments in the Sandwich Generation - hiring a caregiver for your parent. In this episode, I have the pleasure of talking with Sam Cross, founder and owner of Broad Street Home Care http://broadstreethomecare.com/.

Sam has such practical, sound advice and really makes you think:

  • Start from a place of "wanting help" before it becomes "needing help".
  • Caregiving actually allows you to preserve your relationship with your parent.
  • Instead of throwing in the towel if things go south, think about it a different way.
  • And much, much more!!

Listen all the way to the end when Sam gives the "Top 5 Secrets to Success When Embarking On This Journey". The payoff is great!!!
