As you grow older, does your mother seem to get smarter? Are you ever shocked when you hear your grandmother's words coming out of your own mouth? Lois P. Frankel, PhD, President of Corporate Coaching International and author of the best seller, Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, discusses with Dr. Merle her new book, Ageless Women, Timeless Wisdom. Frankel's book is both lighthearted and thought-provoking as it honors and gives voice to the older women in our society. Their stories, unique insights, and wisdom are heartwarming, insightful, witty, and philosophical. We invite our listeners to call in during this live show and honor your mother, grandmother, or other influential woman in your life by telling us what you now know to be one of the best pieces of advice she ever gave you.

More than 40 percent of people in their 40s and 50s have at least one living parent, and a child under the age of 21 for whom they are providing care and assistance. Most likely there is also a job, a house to run, groceries to buy and meals to get on the table. How can you cope with the massive demand on your time for love, attention, and decision-making skills?
We know it’s not easy but Caught Between Generations is here to help. We talk all things multi-generational, and provide practical tips you can use right now and in the long term to make your life less stressful.
Our program is a one-stop shop for information and resources for caregivers of multiple generations.
