Mike George, Founder of Soaring Families, shares how three decades of caring for his son with complex medical needs led him to create a platform that helps families move from overwhelm and exhaustion to confidence and hope. What began as a personal journey evolved into a mission to help caregivers build stronger support systems and navigate their care responsibilities with clarity and resilience.

We explore:

✅ How Mike’s family caregiving experience shaped the foundation of Soaring Families
✅ Why writing his book was both emotional and validating—and how it revealed the universal challenges caregivers face
✅ The evolution from his early Caregiver Support Formula to today’s Pink Book, a simple system families use to organize care and reduce stress
✅ How partnerships with organizations like ALS societies and dementia care groups are bringing diagnosis-specific frameworks to more families
✅ Why YouTube and authentic storytelling have become core to Soaring Families’ outreach
✅ What excites Mike most about the future, including AI-powered tools designed to simplify caregiving

Mike’s journey is a powerful reminder that even the most complex caregiving stories can be filled with strength, resilience, and possibility—especially when families have the right support.
