We’re used to our parents taking care of us, so it can be overwhelming when that role dramatically shifts. Aisha Adkins became a caretaker for her parents at a young age, and it changed the way she viewed family life and mutually supportive relationships. In this episode, Aisha talks with Mary Kate about gaining perspective, appreciating our family’s sacrifices, and navigating changing relationships with our parents with grace. 

This episode is dedicated to Rosetta Linda Adkins.
