Caught in the Middle: Caregiving and the Sandwich Generation

What does it mean to be part of the “sandwich generation”? Traditionally, it’s adults caring for both their kids and their aging parents — but even without children, the push-and-pull of being caught in the middle is very real.In this episode, we unpack the pressures of balancing caregiving with careers, relationships, friendships, and our own needs. From being the bridge between family members, to feeling stretched in multiple directions at once, we’re sharing the moments that made us feel “sandwiched” and how we try (and sometimes fail) to navigate them.If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying everyone else’s needs while trying to hold onto your own, this one’s for you.ALSO *drum roll* our website is now live.
