Does Mom really always know best? In this episode, your best pals Katie & Nick debate some things that people our parents' age don't really seem to understand about our generation. (Some have called this the "OK Boomer" episode)

What does it take to truly chase your dreams? For many people, living up to everyone else’s expectations squelches the fearlessness that it takes to go after dreams. Today’s show is all about not losing the youthful exuberance and drive that sets us on the path to our dreams. Monica Rivera is a NYC-based podcast producer, consultant, and speaker who is living a life full of experience by shaking up routines and challenging conventional thinking. She’s the host of YOU WANNA DO WHAT?!--a weekly podcast heard in over 70 countries. YOU WANNA DO WHAT?! Is a podcast about exploring interests, allowing ourselves to change, choose, and try, whether it’s a lifestyle, hobby, fitness transformation, career change, or a bucket list item. Young dreams Does Mom really know best? Monica’s mom didn’t think she could earn a good living or have a stable career doing something creative, so she pushed her into economics. Monica quickly realized it wasn’t her “thing,” but it put her on the corporate ladder. The younger Monica originally wanted to be a singer, and then the first Latina Supreme Court justice, and then a writer. Even though Monica won contests in school with her writing, her mom stepped in to turn her dreams into a different direction. TWEET: If you want to do something, take the first action step and the rest will follow. @youwannadowhat #chasingdreams Spotlighting diversity Are there more dream chasers than you would expect? Monica says that everyone has a dream, but we don’t always have the freedom to chase it. She was in a corporate job and felt all her lights dimming. She was unhappy and felt that she wasn’t getting the opportunities she wanted. She knew she had to dig herself out of the hole she was in, and she asked herself, “What happened to the person I used to be?” TWEET: I love connecting the stories of human experience with an audience. @youwannadowhat #chasingdreams It’s NEVER too late! Are you waiting to chase your dream? Even though it’s never too late, Monica hears many people say they are waiting for retirement or some other life event. We are conditioned to think we have all the time in the world---and this is the biggest problem in chasing dreams. Don’t wait for retirement! Monica’s advice is to start small by thinking about the things you really loved as a kid, and see if you can connect to those things now. Don’t think you have to give up all fun just because you’re an adult. Most people are way too tied to a timeline.  TWEET: Ultimately, I want to tell stories and amplify voices. @youwannadowhat #chasingdreams Guest Recommendation: ONE action for a dream chaser to take--”What’s the one thing you would wish you had done more of if next Friday were your last day?

Does Mom need help but you are tapped out? I brought Ann Butterfield to the show to explain how an Aging Life Care Manager can help you. If you've heard the term “Geriatric Care Manager”, it's the same position. Ann explained that a Care Manager actually quarterback's your loved one's care.  She deals with all of the people who care for your loved one.  This quarterbacking can include: * A Life Care Manager manages the Caregivers. * Doctors–going to doctor appointments, and facilitating communication between the family members, the doctor, and the client. * Attorneys: Elder Law Attorneys, Estate Planning attorneys, and others need to interact with the client and family, and the care manager helps facilitate this. * The Care Manager interacts with Trustees to meet the client's needs. * Other Experts: care managers bring them in when necessary. * Financial: including the accountant and Power of Attorney.  The Life Care Professional provides information on government benefits and assists the client in obtaining them where warranted. * Housing options: Evaluation and selection of appropriate housing such as assisted living options or memory care. * Family members:  Long Distance family members and others need help adjusting and coping with everyday concerns and conflicts that arise. She told a story about “Betty” who was caring for her elderly mother. When mom moved from Washington State to San Francisco, there was a lot to coordinate.  You might be in this situation yourself: * You have a full or part-time job * Children or grandchildren depend on you * Someday you'd like to go out to lunch with a friend When caring for a loved one, you've got to make phone calls (hundreds of them!), you've got to shop for yourself AND your loved one, you've got to coordinate with the caregivers. Not only that, but you also have to deal with doctor's visits, assisted living situations…the list goes on and on. Aging Life Care™, also known as geriatric care management, is a holistic, client-centered approach to caring for older adults or others facing ongoing health challenges. Working with families, the expertise of Aging Life Care Professionals provides the answers at a time of uncertainty. Their guidance leads families to the actions and decisions that ensure quality care and an optimal life for those they love, thus reducing worry, stress and time off of work for family caregivers through: Assessment and monitoring Planning and problem-solving Education and advocacy Family caregiver coaching1  Ann was a nurse before she became a care manager, and it turns out that caregivers come from many backgrounds.  Many have had personal experience with family members and so discovered the need for these services.   A Care Manager takes much of your burden, especially when you are out of the area.   Ann can be reached at Ann@BoutiqueCareManagement.com or if you want more information on care managers in your area, go to https://www.aginglifecare.org/ This article was originally published on http://RockYourRetirement.com * What you need to know, What You Need to Know, https://www.aginglifecare.

Does Mom love you? Does she love JUST you? Of course not, she loves other people just like the Holy Spirit loves all sorts of people and brings them to the Gospel

Mom is unable to handle her affairs and either can’t or won’t accept assistance from other family members. Or maybe one child lives close by and is taking advantage of mom and other family members, who live a distance away, are frustrated in their attempts to protect mom. Is guardianship a solution? In Show 16 of his monthly elder law podcast, Yale Hauptman, a practicing elder law attorney discusses when a guardianship is possible and when it isn’t. Does Mom need to be declared incompetent? How does that happen and what is the standard? Yale also discuss what options are available when a guardianship isn’t possible, such as a conservatorship. If your family is grappling with these issues or you know someone else who is, then you’ll want to tune in to learn more.
