In this episode, we meet Rosanne Corcoran, who shares her experience as a caregiver for her mother with vascular dementia. She discusses the challenges of caregiving, the impact of death awareness, and the importance of supporting caregivers. The conversation also delves into the complexities of dementia care and the need to meet caregivers where they are. We talk about the challenges of caregiving, the broken system, the importance of support, and the spiritual aspect of end-of-life care. We emphasize the need for open conversations about death and grief, and the significance of nature in providing comfort and revitalization.
Rosanne is the creator and host of “Daughterhood the Podcast.” She is also a Daughterhood Circle leader and their Director of Content. She cared for her mother through her 12-year journey with vascular dementia, starting as a supportive caregiver and becoming an in-home "sandwich caregiver" (listen for the definition of sandwich caregiver) for her mother’s final six years.
Rosanne hosts a monthly podcast where she interviews experts in the field, asking questions caregivers want to know the answers to – with topics ranging from dealing with dementia behaviors, to siblings and caregiving, through end of life care, grief, and everything in between.
She carries her authenticity and caregiving experience into each interview. Along with strategies and resources, her podcast also provides listeners with the comfort of knowing they are not facing these challenges alone. Her podcast has consistently been named as a top 10 caregiver podcast and Rosanne has been featured in CNN Health, Barron’s, Next Avenue, The Philadelphia Inquirer and was most recently named one of Next Avenue and American Society on Aging’s 2024 Advocates for Aging.
