Summary: <br> Becoming a caregiver for a loved one is a difficult, life-changing task. My guest on this episode, author, speaker, and community builder <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.lynnabatejohnsonbook.com/" target="_blank">Lynn Abaté-Johnson</a>, was a caregiver for her mother, who suffered from ovarian cancer, for over six years. Like most caregivers, Lynn also juggled a full-time career with her caregiving duties. She truly understands the storm of emotions and the huge responsibility that comes with being a caregiver.<br> <br> <br> <br> Using her strong organizational and leadership skills, Lynn designed a system that helped her navigate the world of caregiving and helped transform her, even after her mom’s death. <br> <br> <br> <br> In this episode, we chat about:<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> * The challenges of being a caregiver for a loved one<br> <br> <br> <br> * How to juggle caregiving with a full-time career or business<br> <br> <br> <br> * Designing systems to help you navigate this new world<br> <br> <br> <br> * How to handle the role reversal when becoming a caregiver for a parent<br> <br> <br> <br> * The "sandwich" generation: caring for growing children and aging parents<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> We also talk about Lynn’s book, “Out Of Love, A Daughter’s Journey With Her Mom To The End.” She also has a community on her website, <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.lynnabatejohnsonbook.com/" target="_blank">lynnabatejohnsonbook.com</a>, to help other caregivers feel less alone in the journeys and gives them tools to navigate this process.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
