We all have emotional baggage. Some of us just carry ours in a cute bag!

When caring for an aging parent or loved one, it’s important to remember that we all bring our own history into the situation.

Old family dynamics, past hurts, guilt, expectations, sibling relationships, the roles we’ve played in our families for years (or decades!)…it can all show up when we’re trying to make decisions about care.

And guess what? Our aging loved ones have their own emotional baggage, too.

We may not be able to leave all that baggage at the door, but simply recognizing that it’s there can help us approach difficult conversations and decisions with a little more patience, perspective, and compassion.

Sometimes a little awareness of what we’re all carrying can go a long way. 💛

What are you grateful for?

Last night, I was grateful for CAR TISSUES. (These are so great.)

I went to visit an older adult client in her home, as she does not have much longer on this earth.

We reviewed a book that she and I put together for her granddaughters. I reminded her of the qualities she told me she loved most about herself when we first met four years ago -and told her that she truly lives up to those qualities.

I told her what she has taught me over these past four years. I told her about all of the positive ways she has impacted her family.

And... I bawled my eyes out while driving there, and again on my drive home.

It’s interesting because she is the oldest client I have ever worked with. And yet, I still had this HUGE grief reaction in anticipation of losing her from this earth.

It just goes to show that NO MATTER HOW OLD someone is, no matter what the circumstances are, it is incredibly difficult to lose someone in your life—whether the loss is expected or unexpected.

So today, I give you permission to purchase the car tissues... and to do something to honor someone you’ve lost.

Have a cheers to them at their favorite coffee shop. Visit their grave. Text a sibling and laugh about a favorite story. Or have a conversation with their spirit in your living room.

Grief is hard.

Hang in there during yours. ❤️

Caring for an aging parent can sometimes feel like trying to read a map that’s upside down in the dark.

You know you need to do something - but figuring out what to do first can feel overwhelming.

My 75-minute phone or video consultation is designed to help you find that next step. We’ll talk through your loved one’s current situation, identify what’s urgent and what can wait, and discuss options, resources, and referrals that may help.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before we talk. Bring your questions, your concerns, and whatever information you have.

After our conversation, you’ll also receive a written summary and local Colorado resources so you have a clear path to refer back to.

If you’re feeling stuck, let’s recalculate the route together so you can move forward with a plan instead of guessing.

Learn more or schedule a 75-minute consultation through the link in my bio.

Learning is a lifelong task!

I recently attended the Western Regional Chapter of the Aging Life Care Association’s Annual Conference and participated in some highly informative sessions on Lewy Body Dementia, long-term care insurance claims, and working with fiduciaries and GCMs.

Such helpful information - and always fun to reconnect with some great colleagues from across the western U.S.!

SIZE MATTERS 👀 - especially when it comes to the cost of assisted living.

Here’s an insider tip families may not realize: the size of an assisted living apartment can make a BIG difference in the monthly price.

A two-bedroom apartment could cost $1,000, $2,000, or even $2,500 MORE per month than a one-bedroom or studio.

That’s a pretty significant difference - especially when you consider what that adds up to over a year.

So when you’re comparing assisted living costs, don’t just look at the community and care fees. Take a close look at the apartment size, too.

Sometimes, a smaller space can mean significant savings.

💰 Follow me for more insider tips to help you understand assisted living costs and make informed decisions for an aging parent or loved one.

If Medicare doesn’t pay for assisted living, what DOES it pay for?

This is where things can get confusing.

Medicare generally doesn’t cover the cost of living in an assisted living community - including things like your apartment, meals, and everyday personal care.

But Medicare may still cover eligible medical and healthcare services you receive while living there, just as it would if you were living at home.

Knowing the difference can help you better understand assisted living costs and plan ahead for yourself or an aging parent.

🔑 Follow me for more practical tips about Medicare, Medicaid, assisted living costs, and navigating senior care.

A little reminder for anyone caring for an aging parent or loved one today. ❤️

Being a family caregiver can sometimes feel like you’re supposed to handle everything yourself.

But asking for help doesn’t mean you’re not doing enough. Caregiver support can give you the space to keep showing up for the person you love - while taking care of yourself, too.

Asking for help isn’t giving up. It’s making room to keep going.

Send this to a caregiver who might need the reminder today. ❤️

One of the questions families often ask me is, “How do I know when it’s time to ask for help?”

My answer? You don’t have to wait until you’re in crisis.

Maybe you’re worried about your parent’s safety. You’re overwhelmed by senior care options. Your family can’t agree on what to do. Or you simply have no idea what the next step should be.

Sometimes, you just need someone who understands the aging care landscape to help you sort through it all.

That’s exactly what we can do during a 75-Minute Senior Roadmap Consultation. We’ll talk through what’s happening, look at your options, and create a plan for what comes next.

When you’re helping care for an aging parent, it’s easy for your time together to become all about the “to-do” list.

Appointments. Medications. Groceries. Safety concerns. What needs to happen next.

But sometimes, it’s important to put the caregiving aside and just be together.

Have a cup of coffee. Look through old photos. Go for a drive. Watch a favorite show. Ask them about a story you’ve never heard before.

Those moments matter, too. 💛

What’s something you enjoy doing with your parent or loved one?

The biggest takeaway? You don’t have to figure everything out in one conversation.

Start early. Listen to what matters to your parent. Do your homework. Explore the options together. And keep the conversation going.

Starting before there’s a crisis gives your family more time, more choices, and more space to make thoughtful decisions together.
