71: Organizing Tips for the Sandwich Generation (Part 1)

This week, we talk about the sandwich generation.  A demographic that finds themselves caring for both their aging parents and their children, or as we like to say “loved ones that are younger and older than they are” because it’s not just your parents or children that you may have to take care of. 

We give practical advice for addressing the complexities of this generation as it relates to organizing and productivity.  This episode sets the stage for a deep dive into the intricate dynamics of the sandwich generation and the impact it has on managing physical possessions during these caretaking responsibilities.
