All working women juggle multiple priorities, but some carry a heavier load and lead a caregiver's double life.

Initially in stride and ultimately brought to her knees, Sarahbeth Persiani provides a deeply personal glimpse into modern day issues such as elder hoarding, opioid addiction, dementia, chronic fatigue, sibling tension, navigating a complex healthcare system and today's multi-generational workforce.

By no means prescriptive, but with honesty, humility, and a smattering of 1970's throwback references, this story offers relatable insights into one woman's transformation with lessons for us all.
