In this heartfelt episode of Ageless Explorations, we are joined by co-host Piper Daniels' parents, Kristin and Kevin Daniels, for an intimate conversation about experiencing senior living from the family side.

Over the course of one year, their family supported four beloved elders in Assisted Living and Memory Care—including care for Lewy body disease—while navigating the profound loss of each within months of one another. Together, they reflect on overlapping caregiving roles, cumulative grief, and the quiet moments of love that endure.

This episode offers honesty, perspective, and reassurance for anyone walking a similar path—reminding us that even in life’s most tender seasons, we are always Better Together.
