In this eye-opening episode of Aging Sidekick, hosts Heather, Brad, and Cyndie dive into AARP's newly released 2025 report, Caregiving in the United States. With over 63 million Americans now serving as family caregivers—often unpaid and under-supported—this episode unpacks the emotional, physical, and financial toll of caregiving, especially for those in the “sandwich generation.”
Together, they explore:
Why caregiving is rising and who it's impacting most
The cost of care and why middle-income families are struggling most
Tools, tips, and technologies that can ease the burden
How to share caregiving duties with family (and why it's often not shared)
Tangible resources like Medicaid waivers, VA benefits, respite care, and adult day programs
Ways employers and communities can show up for caregivers
Whether you're a current caregiver or planning ahead, this episode is full of practical insights, heartfelt reflections, and essential tools for navigating care with compassion and clarity.
