Episode Description from the Publisher

Caregiving for an aging parent can be both beautiful and overwhelming. It’s why Beth Pinsker wrote My Mother’s Money: A Guide to Financial Caregiving. It’s the book she wishes she’d had when her mom’s health took a turn. On this episode of Money Unscripted, host Ally Donnelly brings Beth together with Fidelity Senior Leader Sangeeta Moorjani to talk through the emotional and financial sides of caregiving. It's a practical conversation that covers a lot of ground: when to get power of attorney and how to use it, navigating health care and insurance, how to support your parents without draining your own finances, and ways to avoid caregiver burnout.
