Manage episode 428493159 series 3309110
Can you really balance a new business while caring for aging parents? Tanya Walden knows firsthand the emotional rollercoaster of trying to juggle a burgeoning childcare business with the increasing demands of her elderly parents. She opens up about the suffocating guilt and bone-deep exhaustion that come with being torn between her dream job and familial responsibilities. Tanya even dives into the evolving dynamics in her relationship with her parents, especially highlighting her father's rapid health decline and her mother's high expectations.
Our conversation doesn't shy away from the tough questions. How do caregivers cope with the logistical nightmares, especially when the pandemic has accelerated the decline in their parents' health? Tanya shares her raw, unfiltered feelings about witnessing her parents' suffering and the emotional toll of questioning their quality of life. We also touch on the friction that can arise among siblings when the caregiving burden isn't equally shared. Despite these challenges, Tanya's story is a testament to the deep love and gratitude that drive us to provide the best care for our parents. This episode is both a heartfelt and enlightening exploration of the complexities of caregiving.
