Balancing the Sandwich Generation: A Compassionate Caregiver's Framework with Allison K. Wyman
01/15/24 • 62 min
In Episode 14, we address the Sandwich Generation with Allison K. Wyman. As a family caregiving attorney, consultant, and coach, Allison helps caregivers reduce conflict and regret, save time and money, and sanity. A two-time cancer caregiver to her parents and current caregiver for her mom, Allison has spent nearly 20 years personally and professionally working in the caregiving space, which she considers to be among the greatest honors of her life.
She is very astute but real when she states, ‘The people we love only die once. There is no dress rehearsal. No do-over!’ Allison’s mission is for every family to enter this eternal chapter from a position of strength, and she empowers her clients with a sense of peace instead of regret after the caregiving ends.
To do so, Allison created a unique, one-of-its-kind digital course “How Your Family Wins in Caregiving” which launches in January 2024! Register here using this unique link: https://allisonkwyman.com/sales-page-5929-4857-6868-9671?am_id=mary427

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Using Comedy to Break the Silence with Holly Bridges
This is an engaging and spicy episode with Holly Bridges, a comedian, retired broadcast journalist, author, and a cherished longtime friend.
Our conversation spans a myriad of subjects, delving into the realms of women's health, menopause, humor, and reflections on life's diverse experiences – encompassing both the positive and challenging aspects - from our fulfilling careers to juggling the demands of womanhood in the transition in the workplace.
Throughout our exchange, we share personal anecdotes, including the unique story of how the Canadian Armed Forces played a pivotal role in bringing together both Holly and our respective spouses. Holly also imparts valuable insights from her research for the development of her book on topics such as fibroids, heavy periods, and the often-misunderstood truths surrounding hysterectomies, and why gynaecologists rely more on the scalpel.
Books mentioned
- Radical Self Love: How To Ignite Your Light Through Creativity Jessica Hughes & Christy Whitman.
- Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities to pay homage, if you will, to her family roots who were all working class British immigrants.
- And most importantly, Holly’s self published book, Flow Fighter: How I Kicked my Fibroids and Heavy Periods to the Curb, co-authored with Dr. Sony Singh.
Find Holly at on Instagram @hollybridges23 , on TikTok @hollybridges51, and on YouTube @hollybridges2241.
