Government is talking about cutting Medicare and Medicaid funding while costs of care are increasing. Dementia used to be considered a mental defect, and people were hidden from the rest of society and not talked about publicly Today, we know tis is a disease that needs to be managed. We also know that younger people are developing memory concerns. The plus is that we're not afraid to talk about it anymore. The negative is that we're delaying the needed planning until it's too late to design meaningful planning strategies. Here are links to the resources I discuss in this episode.

Occupational therapy has many benefits at every stage of life. For older adults, it can even help maintain independence. Cindy, an occupational therapist, joins us to discuss how OT can help older adults. 

This week, I'm hearing that people want to plan for potential LTC needs, but they are afraid to do that today because of our uncertain economy and stock market fluctuations. It's more important than ever to own our own plan today.  Federal programs are being gutted, and Medicare and Medicaid are the two biggest expenses on the federal budget.  Medicaid is not going to do more in the future. People who thought thay had enough savings to self fund care are seeing today that that should not be a lone solution.  Those who are drawing from retirement accounts today to pay for care will have no opportunity for a rebound. That money is GONE! There aren't enough professional caregivers today to keep up with demand. We need to be our own advocates and plan for future care needs.  We're going to get through this, and many of us will continue to live a long life.  When we live a long life, we get old.  And when we get old, we need help living. It's much easier to get help when we plan ahead. Schedule with me today  

We and our financial advisors are preparing to need money to last 30 plus years in retirement, yet we don't trust LTC insurance companies to help protect us during that time. If we think we're going to live that long, do we really believe we will remain as strong, healthy and active as we are today?  Look at our parents and grandparents. Humans slow down as we age.  Dementia is showing up in our 60s.  People are having strokes in their 50s due to stress. We need to be prepared. LTC insurance is strictly regulated by the NAIC (National Association of Insurance Commissioners) to make sure that rules are followed for marketing and claims.  Learn how our state departments of insurance protect us The America Association for LTC insurance was created in 1988 to educate consumers and support insurance/financial professionals.  You can learn a lot from them The report from Faegre Drinker on NAIC Model regulation can be found Estimate LTC premiums View current and projected costs of care where you live Schedule a meeting with me and Prepare for Tomorrow

 When Patricia Miele's family moved her into Greenwood Place Assisted Living and Memory Care in Marietta this past October, they trusted the 89-year-old was in good hands, adding the facility came highly recommended.Miele moved from Connecticut to Georgia years ago to be closer to her family and two grandchildren. The former schoolteacher and devout Catholic lived by her routines, which involved prayer and meals. She didn't even have a television in her room.“Pat was a voracious reader and had a deep faith and understanding of her place in the world,” said son-in-law Garrett Phillips.Miele's daughter, Karen Phillips, said the facility should have known her mother's mental health was on the decline. According to her, Miele once mistook a fire alarm for an elevator button while living at Greenwood Place. Then there was the time when she accidentally locked herself in her room.Karen Phillips also remembers a nurse called to share her mother repeatedly expressed fear of getting lost. “She didn't know where she was going and needed help,” she said. They knew that.”Read the full story here: https://www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2025/01/08/dont-lose-our-mother-i-family-missing-woman-found-dead-speak-out/

As you gather with family and friends this holiday season, I ask you to notice sons and daughters helping their moms and dads perform simple tasks like cutting their food or getting in and out of chairs. Ask yourself and your spouse/partner what you would like to have happen when you reach a point when it's your turn to need help. Do you have kids?  Can they, and do you want them to be forced to help you alone?  Or do you want to prepare a written plan that includes answers to their questions and resources to help them? If you don't have kids, I ask you to think about who will be taking on that role for you? LTC insurance is simply a tool the provides funding for you to be able to control your care experience and to decide with your doctors and family where the best place is for you to receive that care. Who wants to hand that control over to the state Medicaid department?  Not anyone I know. Whether to decide to own insurance or not, you need a plan.  You need to write that plan down and share it with your family so they know what you want and where you want to be. Email me at to request two free planning guides to help you help your family help you. Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

When it comes to money, we're often taught to play it safe. Hold on to what we have, avoid taking too many risks, and trust that our money will grow where we're advised to put it.  What if that advice isn't really in your best interest? Here's the issue: simply holding on to your money without a plan for strategic growth can leave you vulnerable—especially during times of tragedy. Imagine believing you're financially secure, only to discover you're not prepared for life's unexpected challenges. While we can't stop life's hardships, wouldn't it be empowering to know your finances are secure, no matter what happens? Being your own bank offers that control, turning even difficult situations into moments of opportunity and resilience. How can we ensure our family's future is protected? Can positivity emerge from tragedy? And how does becoming your own bank help create this financial safety net? In this episode, James Miles, owner of a Residential Assisted Living and Memory Care home in Carmel, Indiana, joins me to discuss how becoming your own bank can offer support in tough times. He shares his personal experiences with tragedy and how financial preparedness helped him navigate it.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Going back to the fundamentals Many people skip over the basic but important fundamentals of investments. How can fundamentals help us understand what we're doing and the risk of doing it all? -The age-old money mindset Outdated mindsets can negatively influence important money decisions and kill new opportunities. How can you break free from traditional money beliefs to make more informed and flexible financial decisions? -The bare minimum won't cut it Settling for minimal insurance coverage can leave you vulnerable when you truly need it, so it's essential to invest in adequate protection. How can investing in better insurance coverage save you from future financial risks?   Guest Bio James Miles, based in Carmel, IN, is the Owner and Operator of Willow Haven Senior Homes. With experience from Indiana University School of Medicine and Charles Schwab, James now dedicates his career to providing compassionate residential assisted living and memory care. His "feels like family" approach ensures that seniors needing care have a comforting home, while their families can rest assured knowing their loved ones are well cared for. Growing up in a family that cared for his mentally handicapped uncle, James understands firsthand the challenges of caregiving. This personal experience drives his mission to offer respite for families, freeing them from guilt and stress, and giving them peace of mind.

I promise I'll start talking numbers and cases again next week. We made it through the storms and things are almost normal in our community. This week, I received a question about me rather than about long term care, and I felt the need to answer. Do I get depressed talking about getting old or getting sick all day long? I've been working as an LTC Specialist for over 20 years, and you would think I am sad every day. Listen and learn why that is not the case, and then schedule time with me so I can help you and your family prepare for your tomorrow.
