You're My Favorite
Welcome to You’re My Favorite, a podcast about caregiving, chaos, and sisterhood. Hosted by Lexi and Ari, two sisters navigating life as young caregivers to their mom with dementia and Parkinson’s, this show is part heart, part humor, and all real. Through laughter, tears, and way too many inside jokes, they explore what it means to care for a parent while juggling relationships, work, and mental health. Whether you're a caregiver yourself or just curious about the ride, you're not alone — and hey, you might even laugh along the way.

Role Reversal: Taking Care of the People Who Raised You
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we talk about the moment we realized we’ve slowly started becoming the parent to our parents. From managing appointments and finances to making big life decisions, we discuss what that role reversal really feels like and how emotionally complicated it can be.
We start the episode with about 15 minutes of honest life updates, venting, and a bit of a spiral city about life in general, because sometimes that’s just where we’re at, and we know we’re not the only ones feeling that way.
This conversation is about growing up in ways we didn’t expect, navigating responsibility, and processing the strange, sad, and sometimes even funny moments that come with realizing the roles have changed.
