Lindsay Friedman: Refusing to Accept Broken — How One Woman Is Changing the Future of Caregiving

from HER Extraordinary LIFE By Design · host Leslie Gaudet

Join Leslie Gaudet and Lindsay Friedman, four-time founder and creator of LTCareNav, for a deeply honest and inspiring conversation about what happens when personal pain refuses to stay silent — and becomes the foundation for something that changes everything.  Lindsay has cared for her grandmother, her chronically ill daughter, and Now her parents. Every company she has built exists because she collided with a broken system and refused to accept that this was simply how it had to be. Her current work with LTCareNav is helping families and professionals navigate one of life's most overwhelming seasons — planning for aging and long-term care — before crisis forces the conversation.  In this episode, Lindsay opens up about the invisible emotional weight caregiving places on women, why so few families are prepared for this season until they are already in the middle of it, and what becomes possible when entrepreneurship meets lived experience. You'll hear what it really takes to keep building, keep caring, and keep going — and how one woman's refusal to accept broken is changing the future for millions of families.  ******************************************************************** Connect with me here: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign ******************************************************************** If you are a woman in law and you would like to learn more about The YES Reset Community, my private, invitation-only community for women in the legal profession, I would love to hear from you.
