EP 021 - Dirty (& Sandwiched) Nanay: Living In The "Sandwich Generation"

Being a part of the Sandwich Generation can feel really burned and sticky all at the same time. What is the Sandwich Generation, you ask? "We are the generation of people, typically in their 30s or 40s, responsible for bringing up their own children and for the care of their aging parents." Zee and Rissa discuss how this shows up for them, the sacrifices made to make sure the peanut butter of their parents and the jelly of their children are healthy and happy, the conflict that shows up with meeting these demands, and facing the concept of their aging parents' mortality--- because just don't ketchup to them in age. Feeling spread thin? Caught up in a jam? Feeling in the middle and stuck in a pickle? This episode is for you. And guess who has a bun in the oven...

xoxo,

Rissa & Zee
