In this heartfelt episode, Trina and Lani open up about one of the hardest conversations many families face — “The Tough Talk” — when it’s time to discuss the possibility of your kūpuna moving into a senior living or care home. 💜
Both share their personal experiences having this emotional discussion with their own parents, the challenges that come with it, and the signs that it might be time to consider extra support.
They also offer practical advice on how to approach the topic with love, patience, and empathy — while honoring your parent’s independence and dignity. 🌺
Whether you’re a caregiver, a family member, or simply preparing for the future, this episode is a must-listen reminder that having “The Tough Talk” is really an act of compassion — not guilt.
