Not Ready for Old Age

from Pao and Co. · host Paola Trabanco

No one hands you a manual for watching the people you love grow old. In this episode, I’m diving into the "uncomfortable truths" of aging and caregiving. Watching my mom care for my grandmother was a wake-up call I wasn't expecting—revealing the mental, emotional, and financial toll that hits when the roles of parent and child start to flip. I’m sharing how this experience exposed my own lack of preparedness and why we need to start talking about the reality of the future before we’re right in the middle of it.
