About episode:

Caregiving for aging loved ones is a reality many of us will face, and yet it often feels overwhelming and isolating. The administrative load, emotional toll, and sheer responsibility can make you feel alone on a journey that millions are walking every day.

In this episode, I speak with Shauna Sweeney, founder and CEO of Tender Care. Drawing on her own experience as a primary caregiver for her father, Shauna has tapped into her background in big tech to build a platform designed to support and empower family caregivers as they navigate the challenges of dementia, Alzheimer’s, and chronic illness.

We dive into the emotional realities of caregiving, the critical need for support systems, and how technology - including AI - can give time back to caregivers so they can focus on meaningful moments with loved ones. Shauna also shares practical advice for building your own caregiver “toolbox,” the value of community, and why asking for (and accepting) help is vital for wellbeing.
