What happens when the roles between parent and child begin to reverse? In this touching episode, we explore the emotional shift that comes with caring for a parent who once cared for you. Our guest reflects on a poignant moment from her book And Now, Back to Me, describing a scene under a blooming cherry blossom tree, where her mother—deep in the stages of Alzheimer’s—asks, “What are those?” as pink petals fall like fairies from the sky. The same question once asked by her toddler daughter. It's a full-circle moment of tenderness, grief, and the quiet beauty of caregiving.
