Did you know that 10,000 people are turning 65 in the U.S. every day and will continue to for the next 7 years? It’s true. And that means that caregiving is something that will impact the lives of many women. Our guest today is Jeannie Dougherty, a money expert, mental fitness guide, and former caregiver. She’s here to help you better understand how caregiving can affect your financial health and what proactive steps you can take to safeguard your financial future.
Listen in as Jeannie shares her personal experiences in caring for both her father and mother as they faced Alzheimer's. She highlights the challenges and emotional rollercoaster that comes with becoming the primary caregiver, as well as the importance of open communication among family members and proper legal and financial preparations.
With a deep understanding of aging issues, Jeannie offers valuable advice on navigating the complexities of caregiving, planning for the future, and staying mentally and emotionally resilient as a caregiver. If you are a caregiver or anticipate becoming one, this episode is a must-listen, and is filled with resources to help you navigate this journey with confidence.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
- The importance of early and open conversations about healthcare, legal matters, and finances before health problems develop
- What legal preparations are necessary for effective caregiving, and what role do mental health power of attorney, medical power of attorney, and a financial power of attorney play?
- How can caregivers facilitate conversations about caregiving and aging with their loved ones?
- Prioritizing self-care and staying mentally agile as a caregiver + resources to support caregivers in their journey
