Jayne: Hi Heather!
Heather: Hi Jayne!
Jayne: Hello friends!  
It had been ages really since we'd sat down and had a conversation.
and we had a lot of ground to cover. And I remember, as we stumbled into this conversation about your mom, it just got a little intense.
Heather: Well, and you were so sweet, because I said, well, Jayne, because you said, how are things going? And I said, well, I can give you the 30 second flyover, or I can go deeper with 30 minutes.
And bless you. You said, I want to hear the story. It's hard to tell the story, but I was so grateful because it was a safe place for me to share friend to friend, the heavy, hard journey that I've been on. 
And I said, I want to take this experience because it kind of it makes me mad sometimes that it was so hard, and it makes me mad that, people are struggling. How can we make it better? How can we make it better for others? 
 And that was the beginning of these beautiful conversations and learnings and reflections and diving in to how might it be better as we are walking this really challenging path of caring for our aging parents.
Jayne:  We, need to do better. I think that's what we've committed to is not just us personally, but as a whole, we need to do better. 
Heather: I am so excited. Our plan is to be together every other week with this podcast. And we're going to talk about topics that we have learned and want to share with you. 
Jayne: Cause if you're not in the squeeze and you're tuning in, either you're anticipating being the squeeze or you know somebody who is.
