The Invisible Toll of Caregiving with Tembi Locke

Sorry For Apologizing

There are ~70 million caregivers in America. And when a family member develops a serious health issue, women are about twice as likely as men to take on caregiving responsibilities. Caregiving not only has physical and mental health implications but also comes with a significant financial burden. This week on Sorry For Apologizing, Missy is joined by Tembi Locke, New York Times best-selling author, co-creator of the Netflix series “From Scratch,” and host of the podcast, "Lifted." As a leading advocate for caregivers, Tembi opens up about her journey as a caregiver for her late husband while offering a deeper understanding of grief and the resilience of the human spirit.
