We are getting closer. In just over three weeks, Kannen Mediation will be at the Sydney Ageing Well Expo, and we would love to see you there.

When: 26 and 27 June 2026
Where: Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park
Find us at: Stand 305

Also: keep an eye out for our presentation on the Main Stage

The Expo brings together health, aged care and support services to help individuals and families plan ahead with confidence. It is free to attend, and a wonderful chance to gather information and ask questions, all in the one place.

Ageing can bring some difficult family conversations, around care, living arrangements, finances and changing roles. These discussions are not always easy, and they can sometimes create tension between family members who all want the best outcome. This is where elder mediation can help, by giving everyone a calm, respectful space to be heard and to find a way forward together.

If any of this is on your mind, or your family's, please come and say hello at Stand 305. We would be glad to talk through how we can help.

The King's Birthday long weekend is almost here (Saturday 6 to Monday 8 June), and for many separated families a long weekend brings its own quiet stress. Who has the children? Whose turn is it this year? What happens if plans change at the last minute?

Public holidays and school breaks are some of the most common flashpoints for co-parents. When arrangements are unclear, even a three-day break can become a source of tension, and children often feel that tension too.

A few things that can help:

Confirm arrangements early, so no one is left guessing.

Put the plan in writing, even a quick message, so everyone is working from the same understanding.

Keep the focus on what works for your children, rather than what feels fair between adults.

Allow a little flexibility where you can. Long weekends rarely go exactly to plan.

If holidays and long weekends keep causing friction, mediation can help you put a clear, workable parenting plan in place that sets these arrangements out in advance, so future holidays are calmer for everyone, especially the children.

At Kannen Mediation we work with families right across Australia, online, to reach practical agreements that stand the test of time. If you would like to talk through your situation, you are welcome to get in touch for a free initial consultation. Call 0455 238 884 or visit kannenmediation.com.au.

🌿 We’re so excited to be attending the Sydney Ageing Well Expo 2026 this June and we’d love to meet you in person!

Kelly and Kim from Kannen Mediation will both be there across the two days, so if you’ve ever wondered what mediation is, how it works, or whether it might help in your family’s situation, please come and say hello.

Families often find themselves navigating difficult conversations around ageing parents, care decisions, changing family roles, finances, living arrangements, or simply different views about what’s best. These conversations can feel overwhelming, especially when communication has become strained.

At Kannen Mediation, we help families reduce conflict, improve communication, and work through challenging conversations in a respectful, neutral and supportive way.

🎤 Kelly will also be speaking on the Main Stage on Friday about what we do, how mediation can help, and when families and professionals may benefit from support. We might even have a surprise for the first few people to join us... shhhhhh

💛 Families aren’t always in conflict because they don’t care.

Sometimes families are in conflict because emotions are high, communication has broken down, or life has changed faster than anyone expected.

Separation. Parenting arrangements. Ageing parents. Care decisions. Property discussions.

Families come in all forms and difficult conversations are part of many family stories.

On International Day of Families, it’s a reminder that seeking support isn’t failure.

Sometimes it’s simply the first constructive step forward.

If you’ve ever found yourself saying things like:

“Dad refuses help.”
“My siblings and I can’t agree on what’s best for Mum.”
“We don’t know how to talk about aged care without it turning into an argument.”

…you’re definitely not alone.

Kannen Mediation is excited to be attending the Ageing Well Expo Sydney at Stand #305.

📅 Friday 26 June – Saturday 27 June
🕤 9:30am – 4:00pm

We work with families during ageing transitions - helping people navigate difficult conversations around ageing parents, care arrangements, disability support, independence, family conflict, communication breakdowns, and future planning.

Sometimes families don’t need a legal battle or a “winner”. They just need a safe, calm and neutral space to talk things through before relationships become further strained.

Come and have a chat with us at the expo if you’re:

🧓 supporting ageing parents
🤝 navigating aged care decisions
♿ caring for a family member with disability support needs
💬 feeling stuck in ongoing family tension
🌿 wanting calm, respectful support through difficult conversations
🏡 planning future care or living arrangements
❤️ trying to keep family relationships intact during change
☕ wanting an informal chat about how mediation works

We’ll also be speaking on the main stage about navigating family conversations as we age.

We’re pleased to share that Kannen Mediation will be attending the upcoming Ageing Well Expo, where Kelly Neighbour will be speaking on the topic of family communication and decision-making during ageing transitions.

As families navigate changes around independence, care arrangements, living situations, health concerns, and future planning, conversations can sometimes become difficult or emotionally charged. Mediation can provide a structured and supportive space to help families communicate more effectively and move toward practical outcomes together.

Kelly’s presentation will explore:
• common sources of family conflict during ageing transitions
• the role of mediation in supporting respectful conversations
• ways aged care providers and support professionals can assist families early

We’re looking forward to connecting with families, carers, professionals, and aged care providers who are passionate about improving communication and supporting better outcomes for older Australians.

📍 Sydney Showground – Ageing Well Expo
📅 Friday 26 June & Saturday 27 June
🎤 Presentation Topic: “Where Do We Even Start? Navigating Family Decisions Around Ageing and Care”

You can also visit us at Stand #305 throughout the expo - we’d love to chat with you about how mediation can support families during ageing transitions.

🌿 Today is World Health Day - but not all health is visible.

When people think about health, they often think physical.

But for many families, the heavier load is the one you can’t see,
the mental and emotional side of things.

Changes in life can bring:

🌿 Uncertainty
🌿 Pressure around decisions
🌿 Shifting routines
🌿 and ongoing stress

And sometimes what looks like conflict…
is actually just overwhelm.

We often see that when pressure reduces - even slightly -
everything else starts to feel more manageable.

🌿 Conversations soften
🌿 Decisions become clearer
🌿 Things feel a little less heavy

🧡 A gentle reminder today that taking care of wellbeing isn’t always about big changes - sometimes it’s about creating a bit more calm where you can.

🐣 A question for local families this Easter…

For those who are separated or co-parenting, how do you usually manage Easter with the kids?

Do you:

👉alternate each year?
👉split the long weekend?
👉share the day?

or do something completely different?

We often hear that Easter (and school holidays in general) can bring up a bit of stress around planning and expectations.

But it’s also one of those times that can work really well with a bit of flexibility.

👇 Would love to hear what’s worked for others in the community

(Your answer might really help someone else who’s figuring this out right now.)
