HEADSUP!!! Episode Release this Thursday: Caring for Aging Parents with Margaret Hodgkinson

In this pre-episode chat of SWBY, hosts Dr. Amelia Haines and Janet Evans delve into the intricate challenges faced by the "sandwich generation"—those balancing the demanding roles of caring for both their growing children and aging parents. The discussion brings light to the unique stresses and emotional toll this dual caregiving responsibility can impose, all while navigating complicated healthcare systems and family dynamics.

Navigating Dual Caregiving Challenges
Adults in their 40s and beyond often find themselves juggling the responsibilities of guiding their young or teenage children and caring for their elderly parents. Hosts Janet Evans and Dr. Amelia Haines introduce the concept of the "sandwich generation," discussing the emotional complexities and societal pressures tied to this situation. They recount personal stories and examine broader societal implications, making this episode a must-listen for anyone in this caregiving sandwich. Listeners will gain insights into how aging parents' vulnerabilities reveal new facets of family relationships and dynamics.

Healthcare and Family Dynamics
The maze of navigating healthcare systems for the elderly can be daunting, even for professionals like Dr. Haines. She shares her experiences and frustrations with the convoluted processes. Janet and Amelia also discuss the differing opinions within families on how best to care for aging parents, which can sometimes lead to conflict. They explore how retirement villages, nursing homes, and the often resistant attitudes of elderly parents add more layers to the already challenging scenarios faced by families today.

She Wasn’t Born Yesterday tackles the many unique issues affecting women who are 40+ fabulous. No topic is too controversial!

She Wasn't Born Yesterday

How do you deal with the ‘pause’? How do you know you’re dating someone with a narcissistic personality disorder? How do you move on from divorce? Behind the scenes of a 40+ influencer and how to reverse the aging process, are just a few topics tackled.

SWBY features Janet Evans, an ex M&C Saatchi advertising creative and Dr Amelia Haines, a sexual and relationship therapist, who have written Australia’s first book on empty nest syndrome called Empty Next. A chance interview on radio station Hope 103.2 about the book inspired the podcast.

“So many unique issues affect women of our age, including empty nest syndrome, and nothing’s off limits in SWBY! We really dive headfirst into them, but hopefully with lightness and relevant wit where possible,” Janet commented. “We were incredibly lucky to chat to some very high profile guests, including CEOs of important organisations, who shared their expertise with us and our audience.”
