  In this episode, we sit down with Brian Brady, former police officer, corporate security executive, and now acclaimed crime novelist, to discuss the journey of reinventing yourself after retirement. Brian shares stories from his fascinating life—spanning the eclectic streets of Berkeley, the scenic vistas of New Mexico, and executive roles at NBCUniversal and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art—and how these diverse experiences became the inspiration behind his compelling crime fiction. Our host delves into Brian's transition from law enforcement and corporate life to writing books like Oh, What a Tangled Web , Hiding in Plain Sight , Greed , Fog City Stories , and his latest, Still Waters Run Deep . Brian offers candid insight into the creative process, from gathering anecdotes in a notebook to overcoming the challenges of dialogue and descriptive writing. The conversation takes a heartfelt turn as the host shares her own story about her mother’s unpublished journals, leading Brian to reflect on the power of personal storytelling and memory. Whether you're considering writing your own life stories, exploring crime fiction, or simply looking for inspiration to try something new in retirement, this episode is filled with thoughtful advice and encouragement for listeners at every stage of life.

  Why Can't I Sleep?

  Aug 20, 202638 minS6

  Are you spending one too many nights staring at the ceiling? This episode is for you. Insomnia is one of the most common — and most misunderstood — struggles among older adults, and it's rarely just about sleep itself. We sit down with Tiffiny Ann Overath, a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Journey Forward Counseling , who brings over 20 years of clinical experience to the conversation. Tiffiny breaks down why insomnia hits seniors so hard, walking through the real numbers behind it and unpacking the roles stress, anxiety, and depression play in keeping us awake at night. The most reassuring part? Tiffiny's clear on this: most people struggling with insomnia can become normal sleepers again, often without relying on long-term medication. If you're looking for real answers — for yourself or someone you're caring for — this episode offers both practical tools and genuine hope.

  Driving with Dementia

  Aug 5, 202638 minS6

  It's time to dive deep into one of the most challenging and emotionally charged topics faced by families and caregivers: navigating the conversation around driving with dementia. Our guest, Robin Rountree, Director of Communications and Marketing for the Alzheimer's and Dementia Resource Center and host of the Informed Aging Podcas t, shares her personal and professional journey inspired by her mother's battle with Lewy body dementia. We explore why driving is often the last vestige of independence for older adults and discuss the immense skills and mental load required for safe driving—skills often diminished by cognitive changes. Robin and our host unravel the emotional barriers families encounter, such as denial and guilt, and the complex balance between preserving dignity and ensuring safety for everyone on the road. With humor, vulnerability, and firsthand insights, this episode is a must-listen for anyone supporting an aging loved one through difficult decisions about independence and safety. Tune in for guidance on starting the conversation, protecting both your loved one and your peace of mind, and ensuring the well-being of everyone on the road.

  What I See Before Anyone Talks About It

  Jul 22, 202638 minS6

  Let's dive into the subtle warning signs families often overlook as their loved ones age, with insight from Brooke Schmidt, a registered nurse with over 14 years of experience in senior care, hospice, and community support. Brooke sheds light on early indicators of health challenges—long before the big red flags appear. We explore the taboos around incontinence—how it affects dignity, why it’s often hidden, and practical tips for recognizing early symptoms through everyday clues. Brooke reveals the challenges many older adults face when accessing and choosing the right incontinence products in public and explains how online resources can make both the research and purchasing process more private and supportive for families. Brooke and Darleen unpack the hidden harm of loneliness and social isolation, discuss medication management pitfalls, and reveal how something as simple as “furniture surfing” can indicate mobility challenges or fear of falling. Whether you’re actively supporting a parent or simply want to be better prepared, you’ll find actionable guidance on early intervention—paying attention to patterns, documenting changes, and supporting your loved one before a crisis hits. This episode is packed with real-world advice, empathy, and resources to help you notice the “little things” that can lead to safer, healthier aging.

  Is Family Caregiving Costing More Than You Think?

  Jul 8, 202627 minS6

  In this episode, we welcome back Rita Shula, Senior Director of Caregiving at the AARP Public Policy Institute, for an insightful discussion about the staggering economic and social impact of family caregiving in America. Rita shares the latest findings from the AARP’s "Valuing the Invaluable" report, revealing that family caregivers in the U.S. provided 50 billion hours of unpaid care in 2024—equivalent to $1.01 trillion in economic value, surpassing even national healthcare and Medicaid spending. The conversation covers growing trends in caregiving, from the shifting demographics—including younger and sandwich-generation caregivers—to the expanding responsibilities shouldered by families as loved ones live longer and home-based care becomes the norm. Rita outlines key advocacy efforts for tax credits, financial relief, and workplace policies that would better support caregivers’ unique challenges. This episode is a must-listen for anyone providing care, considering taking on a caregiving role, or seeking ways to support this essential, often invisible workforce.
