Age Old Questions: The Aging Parents Podcast
A podcast that explores the challenges of supporting aging parents with wisdom, humor, and honesty.
I know that navigating the role of supporting an aging parent can leave you feeling frustrated, guilty, worried, and alone. I'm here to provide guidance, interview experts, and share stories from people just like you so you'll feel more connected, prepared, and less stressed. We have big complicated lives to live, and this is part of the whole thing. I want to empower and inspire you to enjoy, to laugh, to ponder, to grieve and to really engage in this part of life. - Ellen.

06. Guilt: It's what's for breakfast
Families who are supporting aging parents often tell me they feel guilty. They feel guilty they're not doing enough, or that their parent is not doing better, or that they're not able to do the right things or find the right solutions. It's understandable to feel guilty when no matter what you do, it feels like something is going wrong. This episode is a short reflection on guilt, why it's so common among people supporting aging parents, and how to let it go... Oh, and also breakfast and Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
