Episode 30: The Sandwich Generation // Midlife Crunch

from The Kindred & Brave Project · host MandyJankus

“About a quarter of U.S. adults (23%) are now part of the so-called "sandwich generation," according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted in October 2021. These are a group of Americans who are caring for children under 18 and older relatives at the same time, providing hours of unpaid labor—from transportation and doctor visits, while also dealing with the demands of being a parent.” I’m sharing the story of how I learned about this term, how I’m navigating (fumbling through) it, & some lessons I’ve learned in the process.  Your support is so important to me - please follow the podcast, share episodes, & leave a review.  Resources: https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2013/01/30/the-sandwich-generation/ https://www.apa.org/topics/families/sandwich-generation Donna Ashworth: Loss With Gratitude,   Mandy-
