You ever feel like you're the peanut butter in a generational panini? Smushed between raising your kids and caring for aging parents—with maybe five minutes to pee alone? Yeah... welcome to the Sandwich Generation, where burnout meets bedtime stories and blood pressure checks.
In this episode of 50ish & Fab, we’re getting real (and a little ridiculous) about what it means to be the go-to for everyone. From chauffeuring teens to decoding Medicare plans, we’re talking about the emotional whiplash, financial juggling, and fierce love it takes to be the backbone of two generations at once.
💬 We’ll share:
- The laugh-so-you-don’t-cry moments
- Practical strategies to survive and thrive
- Why asking for help isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom
- And how to still carve out joy, self-care, and yes, wine time
This one’s for everyone who’s ever packed a lunch, prepped a pillbox, and powered through. You are not alone—and let me tell you, you’re doing the damn thing.
👂🏾 Listen now. Share it with your sister circle. And remember: even the strongest need someone to lean on.
