When the Caregiver Can No Longer Care | Special Guest Kim Burgess, End-of-Life Doula

What happens when the caregiver can no longer provide care or when they pass before their loved one?

It’s a heartbreaking reality that many families face, yet few talk about. In this special episode, Raquel Flores and Syya Yasotornrat take over Engines Off! to chat with Kim Burgess, an experienced End-of-Life Doula and Founder, Comforting Transitions, and explore the emotional, logistical, and financial challenges that arise when a caregiver is no longer able to fulfill their role.

We'll also discuss the recent passing of Gene Hackman and how his circumstances highlight a far more common issue than many realize.

You don't have to be a caregiver to understand this very real issue. Join the conversation!
