ELDER LAW ATTORNEY HARRY MARGOLIS; LINDA KAFKA OF NEURODESIGN ACADEMY; Older Americans Month; May Mental Health Month; Pop Culture: Martin Sheen, Bradley Cooper, Seth and Lauren Miller Rogen - New Films on Aging and Caregiving

May is a BIG month and we have two great guests for this episode: Harry Margolis, Elder Law Attorney and Linda Kafka, Founder/Principal of Neuro Design Academy. Since May is both National Elder Law Month and Home Modification Month, these two experts are perfect for this episode to share valuable information caregivers do not want to miss! In our Caregiver Wellness News, we focus on May Older Americans Month and an awareness campaign where Sherri served as gerontology advisor on for Theora Care called “No Fear.” And since May is also Mental Health Awareness Month, Sherri shares some insights from research done by Prof. Jean Twenge at San Diego State University on iGen and social media dangers to teen mental health. Sherri also shares information about the latest educational campaign from the Caregiver Action Network on caring for someone with PTSD; and a new stress relief, self-care app called eLightn.me from Drs. Alman and Felitti. For our Well Home Design News, we put the spotlight on May as National Home Improvement Month and National Moving Month. Sherri talks two great resources, TruBlue Home Service Ally for finding handymen and other home small modification services; and Porch.com for downsizing or moving an older loved one. And in our Pop Culture segment. Sherri shares the latest documentaries and films you can stream on caregiving with celebrities like Bradley Cooper, Martin Sheen, Seth and Lauren Miller Rogen and more.
