🎧 When Our Parents Change: Learning to Connect Again

This episode covers a journey many of us will face but few of us ever feel prepared for, learning how to stay connected to a parent as they age, change, and evolve in ways that shift the entire relationship dynamic. This isn’t theory. This isn’t research. This is lived experience.

From memory changes, emotional shifts, moments of unfamiliarity, and navigating when the roles between parent and child begin to reverse, this episode shares honest reflection and vulnerable storytelling, to help listeners explore what love, dignity, patience, and connection look like during one of life’s most challenging transitions. It’s a conversation about acceptance, adjustment, and showing compassion, both to the parent who is changing and to yourself as you learn to meet them where they are.
