About this listen

 Jessica Guthrie is more than a millennial caregiver - she’s an advocate using her voice to change how we approach the care of loved ones. When her mom Constance was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s disease at 66 and Jessica was 26, Jessica began coordinating her care from a distance. The trajectory of the disease soon required a move to be closer to Constance. Jessica describes it as “a shock to the system” as she began trying to figure out how to manage her mom’s care. None of her friends were talking about caregiving or Alzheimer’s disease. In the ten years since the diagnosis, there have been ups and downs in Jessica’s caregiving journey, including admission and discharge (and readmission) to hospice. Jessica Guthrie founded When Career & Caregiving Collide, sharing what she’s learned to empower other caregivers. She’s teaching and speaking, featured in podcasts and webinars.
