As someone with dementia in my family, I really related to this podcast. There are so few resources out there and this podcast contains so much useful information, but also takes a lightheartedly approach to a difficult topic.
What a lovely listen, the connection that you both have and the insights you shared are really valuable for this community. Thank you for being so open and honest, looking forward to the next episodes.
I have just listened to the introductory episode and laughed and cried in equal measure. Can’t wait to listen to the rest. Joanna and Anna have incredible chemistry and they spoke of experiences I have sadly had with my own family. I am going to share this with everyone I can. If you have parents, or you are simply getting older yourself - I think this is going to be an essential podcast for many: navigating a disease that affects so many of us. Bravo.
