À propos de ce contenu audio

 Not everyone in an aging family is the caregiver — but everyone is still affected. In Part 4 of our Facing Feelings series, Gina and Don explore the emotional world of the spouses, adult children, grandchildren, and siblings who aren't providing the hands-on care… yet still feel the weight of the journey every single day. Because the truth is — you don't have to be managing medications, appointments, or housing decisions to be overwhelmed. You can be across town… across the country… or just emotionally unsure of your place — and still carry a deep emotional load. In this episode we unpack the hidden struggles many families never talk about: • Role Reversal Grief – Watching a parent slowly become the one who needs guidance • Conflicting Emotions – Love, frustration, guilt, relief… all at the same time • Decision-Making Stress – Having opinions but not the authority (or responsibility) • Sibling Conflict – Different perspectives, different involvement, same family • Fear of Repeating the Pattern – "Will this happen to me too?" • Balancing Life Pressures – Raising kids, working careers, living life while the emotional background noise never turns off This conversation helps normalize the experience of being emotionally involved but not in charge — a position many people quietly struggle with and rarely feel allowed to talk about. If you've ever thought "I'm not the caregiver… so why does this feel so heavy?" this episode is for you. #FocusedHealthyFamily #FacingFeelings #AgingParents #FamilyCaregiving #SiblingDynamics #SandwichGeneration #CaregiverSupport #CaregiverStress #FamilyEmotions #DementiaSupport #ElderCare #AgingJourney #GriefInStages #FamilyCommunication #HealthyFamilies
