Millions of Americans are now finding themselves in a place they have never been before--sandwiched between their careers, the needs of immediate family members, planning their own retirement, and providing care for elderly loved ones.
Baby Boomers - Sandwiched Between Retirement & Caregiving is a fun and sometimes funny look at caring for our elderly loved ones.
It’s filled with humorous do’s and don’ts of caregiving and thoughts you need to think about retiring.
If you’re one of the 78 million in the Silver Tsunami you need these lighthearted yet practical solutions to retiring and caregiving.
Do you need a seat belt for the emotional roller-coaster of caregiving? This book is for you.
If you’ve ever felt like you were drowning in the Alphabet Soup of medical terms and legal jargon--this book is for you.
Whether you’re retiring, retreading, or just free falling--this book is your parachute.
If you ever feel like you’re on a tight rope trying to balance working, planning for retirement, taking care of immediate family members and caring for elderly loved ones all at the same time? This book is for you.
Baby Boomers—Sandwiched Between Retirement & Caregiving is the first and most complete how-to-manual that addresses personal questions related to retirement and caring for elderly loved ones while taking care of one’s immediate family which may include adult children still living at home and perhaps even grandchildren.
In simple, easy-to-understand language I guide readers thru this entire process including medical choices, end-of-life decisions, medical advance directives, possible living arrangements, and how to say good bye before and after the death of loved ones.
I also help readers plan for their own retirement. I've included information on how to avoid unnecessary taxes, probate, and other culprits that could threaten your "nest egg" intended for retirement.
I also explore the importance of a dress rehearsal prior to retiring and offer a strategy for doing this.
Personal/family and professional caregivers of all ages will refer to this invaluable resource over and over again!

The Sacred Journey of Caregiving-A Transformational Approach to Life
Are you the "designated caregiver" for your elderly relatives?
Do you often feel overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, and ashamed?
Are you afraid of not making the "right" decisions?
Do you question your judgment, and feel guilty no matter what you do?
Do you feel lonely and think no one understands what you're going through?
Are you torn between spending time with your spouse, your children, and the needs of your parents?
Are you confused about levels of care, medical advance directives, and living arrangements?
If you answered "yes" to even one of these questions then this information is for you.
In Baby Boomers-Sandwiched Between Retirement & Caregiving I share everything I learned while caring for my mother and step-father (who were both in diapers), and from the experiences of hundreds of other caregivers whom I've worked with as a psychologist.
I've also added a thorough research of medical choices, legal jargon, living arrangements, assistance programs, and resources so that you'll have everything you need at your fingertips.
Hope you will join us tomorrow as Viki Kind interviews me at Noon EDT (9:00am PDT) http://tinyurl.com/33hof9j.

Everything In Its' Place-Five Steps to Getting Organized
Do you ever feel like you're drowning in clutter?
Do you constantly think you're turning around in circles?
Is your attempts to get organized the only thing in your waste basket?
Do you ever think you're the only one who's unable to get organized at work or in your home?
Did you know that being disorganized affects every part of your life--your physical, mental and emotional health as well as your relationships at work and at home?
Forty-three percent of Americans describe themselves as "disorganized", 21% report missing crucial work deadlines because of it, and 50% say disorganization causes them to work late 2-3 times a week.
Some people even think being organized is hereditary so that's their excuse for being disorganized!
If you would like to have a place for everything, have everything in its place, and enjoy the peace being organized brings, then you won't want to miss this episode.
My special guest, Eileen Roth, a productivity expert, national speaker, and author of the book, Organizing For Dummies will discuss the many benefits of being organized as well as systems which will enable you to bring order to every aspect of your life.
So, have your questions ready for the expert on organization, and join us Tuesday, August 24, 2010 at Noon ET (9:00AM PT): www.blogtalkradio.com/sandra-haymon.
