The Sandwich Generation Survival Guide: How To Balance Caring For Aging Parents, Supporting Adult Children, and Planning For Your Future (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349443350)

Feeling squeezed between aging parents and not-so-independent adult kids? You're not alone-and you're not crazy.

Welcome to the Sandwich Generation: where you're the glue holding three generations together, the family tech support, emotional therapist, financial planner, and emergency contact on speed dial-and no one's refilling your cup.

In this refreshingly honest, laugh-out-loud, and emotionally affirming guide, Genevieve Ford shares the survival tools every woman in her 40s to 60s needs to reclaim her life without abandoning the people she loves.

���� Inside, you'll discover:

• Scripts for setting boundaries without becoming the "bad guy"
• Financial and retirement planning that protects your future
• How to stop being the unpaid life manager for your family
• Real-life stories and sanity-saving advice for everyday chaos
• What to say when your mom "doesn't want to be a burden"... but calls six times a day anyway

Whether you're managing Medicare accounts and student loans on the same morning-or hiding in your car just to finish a coffee-this book will feel like a lifeline. With a voice that's funny, wise, and unfiltered, Genevieve gives you permission to say no, take back your time, and design the next chapter of your life on your terms.

Stop setting yourself on fire to keep everyone else warm.

Start taking care of the most forgotten person in your life: you.
