Hosted by broadcaster Teri Hart, the show explores the emotional, financial, and practical challenges caregivers face, from navigating dementia and Alzheimer’s to making long term care decisions, managing caregiver burnout, and handling complex family dynamics. It also makes space for the unexpected moments of connection, resilience, and even beauty that can emerge through caregiving. Through honest conversations with medical experts, policymakers, advocates, and well known Canadians including The Honourable Marci Ien and Cheryl Hickey, Teri brings both practical tools and emotional reassurance to those supporting someone they love. Whether you are a part of the sandwich generation balancing work and caregiving, adjusting to a new diagnosis, or walking alongside someone in their later years, The Hart of It All is for you. Caregiving asks a lot of us. It can stretch us, change us, and deepen us. And when we talk about it honestly, we remember that we're not alone. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of The Hart of It All, Teri Hart sits down with longtime personal finance expert Rob Carrick for part one of a two-part conversation about the financial realities of aging, caregiving, and planning for the future. From aging in place to retirement homes, long-term care, home equity, personal support workers, and the hidden costs families often do not see coming, Rob explains why the question is not just “What do we want?” but “What can we realistically afford?” Rob also shares a practical financial checklist for adult children supporting aging parents, including what to know about joint bank accounts, monthly expenses, power of attorney, investments, taxes, beneficiaries, and current ID. It is a conversation about preparation, clarity, and having the money talks before a crisis forces your hand. Whether you are caring for a parent now or trying to plan ahead, this episode will help you understand the financial decisions that can shape care, housing, and peace of mind. And because there is so much to cover, Rob will be back next week for part two, where he and Teri dive deeper into RRIFs, home equity lines of credit, reverse mortgages, and the tax implications families need to understand.
