About this listen

Did you know that caregiving is the second leading reason employees leave the workforce, right after retirement?*

In this insightful episode, host Jeff Cross sits down with George Nightingale and Adriana Medina from Homethrive to shine a light on the often-overlooked challenges faced by working caregivers. The conversation reveals how many employees don’t even realize they’re caregivers — leading to hidden effects on productivity, wellbeing, and financial health. Together, these three explore why employers frequently underestimate the prevalence of caregiving among their teams and discuss the significant advantages of offering support systems like Homethrive. Tune in to discover practical strategies for recognizing and supporting caregivers in your organization, and learn how proactive solutions can benefit both employees and employers alike.
