In this episode of the Sandwich Season Sanity podcast, I sat down with my youngest daughter, Kylie, to explore the unique challenges that arise when a mom transitions into a caregiving role while still raising children. Kylie, who was fourteen when I began caring for my aging parents, shares her perspective of what it was like to experience big family changes at a young age. Together, we walk through the confusion, anxiety, and sense of responsibility that she felt, and the importance of open communication—even when life is unpredictable and overwhelming.
Join us as we uncover valuable lessons for families navigating caregiving and parenting at the same time. We’ll discuss practical ways to help children process complex emotions, the role of prayer and faith through difficult seasons, and how embracing vulnerability can foster healing and connection. Walk away encouraged and equipped to build stronger, more understanding relationships within your own family.
