We’re so excited to share our conversation with this week’s guest, Nurse Alyssa—an experienced ER Registered Nurse dedicated to supporting caregivers beyond the hospital stay. She provides practical guidance that feels like having a nurse advocate in your pocket, offering clear advice, helpful scripts, and confidence from the stress of the ER through discharge. Her caregiver resources include an ER checklist, note-taking pages to track vitals, medications, and questions, a discharge checklist with the top questions to ask before leaving the hospital, and a home safety guide to prepare for a loved one’s return. Truly a one-of-a-kind support system for caregivers navigating a challenging time.

We know that you will do anything for your family, but many of us shy away from the topic of estate planning because it makes us sad or nervous. This week we had a great conversation with our friend and family lawyer, Kieran Lalor, about planning for every generation with care and clarity. As our parents age, and our kids become young adults, there are a few simple but important steps we all need to take to make sure everyone is safe and well taken care of, even when life gets rocky.
Listen in to hear about estate planning, wills, health care proxies, power of attorney, guardianships, how to avoid scammers and more.
You can watch our first convo with Kieran back in 2023 here and you can contact him anytime to find out more about estate planning by visiting Lalor Law , giving him a call at 845-616-3509 or sending an email to kieran@lalorlawfirm.com
Kieran has been a HUGE help to our families, we highly recommend!!
We really talk about it ALL this week! We debate the writings of Betty Friedan and the feminist movement...did it really give us more choices?
Cost of living adjusted to two earners, making single-income households less viable.
This shift forced many women into the workforce, even if they might have preferred staying home.
Instead of expanding freedom, it narrowed it—creating a society where "choice" to stay home became a luxury.
