Description

When the roles reverse and you find yourself caring for the ones who raised you — no one really prepares you for that. From emotional burnout to strained sibling dynamics, financial stress, and intimacy on pause… this episode gets real about what it really means to parent your parents.

Practice This in the Mirror: "I want to understand what matters most to you as you're older and how I can be helpful without stepping on your independence."

👵👶 Sandwiched between aging parents and growing kids? This one's for you. 💬 Tag a friend who's living this right now — let them know they're not alone.
