The SH!T Sandwich Generation

Our Mom, Her Health, and the System that Failed Her and Us

This episode is a deeply personal conversation about our Mom's healthcare journey - from the early signs something wasn't right to the moments that felt confusing, overwhelming, and uncertain.   We share what it was like navigating the system as daughters - and as physicians - while offering insights on how to move through a system that can feel incredibly difficult to navigate.    This story was too important to fit into one episode. We pause this part of the story the moment everything shifted...when we learned she had metastatic cancer and were trying to get answers, including a PET scan. This is where the reality of it all began to set in. Part 2 continues in the next episode. 🎙 The Sh!t Sandwich Generation is hosted by sisters MaryBeth and Susan — raw, honest conversations about navigating life between aging parents, growing kids, and everything in between. 📱 Instagram: @marybethp6  💻 pursuelifecoaching.com/podcast-1  🥪 Have a sandwich story?

Welcome to the Mess

Welcome to the mess. We're kicking off The Sh!t Sandwich Generation by talking about the stage of life no one prepares you for. You're raising kids. Managing a career. And quietly, your parents are aging. This episode is an honest conversation about how we got here and what it feels like to live in the middle of all of it. The pressure. The guilt. The chaos. And the moments that catch you off guard. It's real life. And if you're living in the middle of it too... you're not alone. We are having the conversation that no one is talking about. 🎙 The Sh!t Sandwich Generation is hosted by sisters MaryBeth and Susan — raw, honest conversations about navigating life between aging parents, growing kids, and everything in between. 📱 Instagram: @marybethp6 💻 pursuelifecoaching.com/podcast-1 🥪 Have a sandwich story?
