The Shape of Care is a podcast that explores the world of caregiving. In this series, we hear stories from caregivers and the people they care for, and from experts and activists. There are so many of us doing this work, but we’re not talking to each other. We’re just trying to keep it together. This podcast is a platform for that conversation. Hopefully, one that helps people feel less alone.

I'm very much looking forward to the next episodes!
A wonderful and much-needed discussion of the crisis of care faced by so many on an individual basis and collectively by the nation as a whole as we baby boomers bubble into the elderly years. Mindy blends personal stories with the overarching policy questions in a podcast that is professionally produced and yet still feels like a conversation among friends.
