Episode 43: Conflict Resolution Course

from The Aging Parent Playbook Hosted by Barbara Sparacino MD

In this episode of The Aging Parent Playbook, I walk you through Pillar #2 of my caregiving framework: Conflict Resolution. I talk about why caring for aging parents so often brings up old family dynamics, sibling tension, and guilt, and why trying to “keep everyone happy” usually leads to burnout. I share a simple, practical structure to help you communicate more clearly, set boundaries you can live with, and navigate difficult conversations with parents and siblings without losing yourself in the process. If you’re feeling like the default caregiver or stuck in family conflict, this episode is for you.
