Caring for Aging Parents: Dr. Gail Saltz on Midlife Stress, Caregiver Burnout & Family Guilt

Caring for aging parents can be a huge, unspoken challenge in midlife. At some point, many of us find ourselves stepping into a role we never expected, while still managing careers, relationships, finances, and our own health. In this thoughtful conversation, Mary sits down with renowned psychiatrist and bestselling author Dr. Gail Saltz to explore the emotional realities of caregiving, midlife stress, family dynamics, and the guilt that so often comes with watching our parents grow older. Together, they discuss why this stage of life can feel so overwhelming, how to recognize caregiver burnout before it takes a serious toll, and practical ways to set boundaries while still showing up for the people you love. They also explore the complicated emotions that can arise when old family patterns resurface, siblings disagree about care decisions, and adult children are forced to confront their parents’ changing needs. Whether you’re actively caring for a parent, preparing for that possibility, or simply navigating the pressures of midlife, this conversation offers insight, validation, and practical tools for managing one of life’s most challenging transitions. Dr. Gail Saltz (@drgailsaltz) is a clinical associate professor of psychiatry at New York Presbyterian Hospital and Weill Cornell Medical College, a bestselling author, and one of today’s most trusted voices on mental health and emotional well-being.
