There’s a moment every caregiver faces when love isn’t the question, but how to help is.
For me, that moment came at our kitchen table.
My late husband was fighting bladder cancer.
My aging parents needed increasing care.
My son Aiden was still little and watching everything.
And I was holding the entire emotional and logistical weight of our family with two hands that never felt big enough.
I was juggling medication schedules, insurance paperwork, late-night fears, and the pressure to make the “right” decision when there was no roadmap.
The Moment That Changed Everything
Caregiver Strategist • End-of-Life Doula • Author • Speaker • Mom
There wasn’t enough time.
Or support.
Or clarity.
Just love and responsibility, pulling in opposite directions.
That’s where The Aging Society began. Not in a boardroom, but in the middle of real life, real crisis, and the wish that someone, anyone, could translate the chaos into something calm, clear, and doable.
It’s not a lack of love; it’s a lack of shared language. And that communication gap creates:
- resentment
- guilt
- conflict with siblings
- emotional shutdown
- “Someone always ends up doing everything.”
The Aging Society exists to close that gap.
I help adult children caring for aging parents find the words, the confidence, and the tools to navigate care without guilt, conflict, or fear.
Because the real crisis in caregiving isn’t just care. It’s communication.
When families finally talk about what matters, calmly, clearly, and without shame, everything else becomes possible.
- emotions
- relationships
- finances
- housing
- family dynamics
- decision-making
My work combines three worlds that rarely overlap:
✔ End-of-Life Doula
Emotional steadiness, presence, communication, and compassion during the most vulnerable chapters of life.
✔ Real Estate + Senior Living Expertise
Guiding families through downsizing, home sales, senior living options, and relocations with clarity, not overwhelm.
✔ Lived Caregiver Experience
I’ve been the daughter.
I’ve been the wife.
I've been the mother.
I’ve been the one at the kitchen table trying to figure it all out.
Most professionals bring one of these skills. Few bring all three. And even fewer have lived the caregiving journey firsthand.
This means you don’t need multiple advisors, repeat your story, or sift through conflicting advice.
You get emotional support, logistical guidance, and a clear plan in one trusted place.
Through The Aging Society, I’ve created tools, training, and language for adult children navigating caregiving.
I’m also the author of:
The Art of Aging: Embracing Every Chapter of Life
A compassionate, practical guide that reframes aging as a chapter full of meaning, backed by real stories and actionable wisdom.
As a speaker, I help families move from conflict to connection through topics like:
✔Senior Care & Family Conflict
✔How to Talk to Your Siblings About Caregiving
✔How to Make Hard Conversations Easier
✔Navigating Guilt, Burnout & Emotional Overload
My signature talk, The Guilt No One Talks About:
Why Women Feel Responsible for Everyone — Including Their Aging Parents, has helped audiences cut decision gridlock in half.
Because love isn’t the problem. Communication is.
Beyond my work, the title that means the most to me is Mom.
My son, Aiden, reminds me every day what family really means: love, patience, presence, and choosing what matters over what’s expected.
Those values shape everything I create here, from podcast episodes to caregiver tools to the way I work with families.
When you come into The Aging Society, you’re not just accessing resources. You are becoming part of a community that cares as deeply as you do.

Start Here:
The Caregiver Clarity Kit.
Caring for an aging parent can quietly take over your life. Not because you aren’t capable, but because too many decisions, emotions, and responsibilities show up at once.
Most caregivers don’t need more advice. They need help figuring out what actually matters right now.
The Caregiver Clarity Kit is a free email series designed to help you do exactly that.
Inside the Kit, you’ll learn how to identify the primary pressure point driving your stress, whether it’s guilt, burnout, family dynamics, or senior living decisions, and where to focus your energy next.
Each email is short, direct, and practical. No fluff. No overwhelm. Just clear guidance and links to the most helpful resources for your situation.
This is for caregivers who are carrying a lot. and want to make decisions with more clarity and confidence.
