I'm delighted to welcome back to the podcast Dr. Barry Jacobs, and equally excited to welcome his co author and wife, Dr. Julia Mayer. Dr. Barry Jacobs is a clinical psychologist, family therapist, author and principal at Health Management Associates, a national healthcare consulting firm. He's the author of the emotional Survival Guide for Caregivers, and has been a trusted voice for caregivers through his long running aarp.org advice column. Dr. Julia Mayer is a clinical psychologist with over three decades of experience supporting women in caregiver roles as well as those with troubled marriages and histories of sexual trauma. She's the author of the novel A Fleeting State of Mind, and co-host of the psychology and social justice podcast Shrinks on Third. Together, Barry and Julia have co authored several AARP titles, and now they're back with their latest collaboration, The AARP Caregiver Answer Book. This compassionate and practical guide is a must have for anyone navigating the caregiving journey. Today, we're discussing some of the topics in their book, covering common challenges in caregiving: breaking promises, dealing with guilt and burnout, the emotional realities of caregiving and so much more.
