233. How To Avoid Sibling Conflict In Dementia Care

When a parent starts showing signs of dementia, many families assume that someone else will step up to take care of them. 
But what happens when no one does?

We walk through a real-life coaching session with Jodi, a long-distance caregiver facing the reality of her mother’s cognitive decline. Her biggest challenge? 
Figuring out who will take on the responsibility—and how to have that tough conversation.

Caregiving shouldn’t fall on one person by default. Waiting too long to discuss roles and responsibilities can lead to stress, conflict, and burnout.

The best way to support your loved one—and each other—is to plan ahead, communicate openly, and work as a team.

Even if you live far away, you can still help. Every contribution matters. Start the conversation today.
