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.

Dr. Amina Jabbar explains aging, cognitive decline, and care options for older adults and their families. If you are caring for aging parents or worried about dementia or Alzheimer’s, this conversation brings clarity without fear. This week, Teri Hart is joined by Dr. Amina Jabbar, a GTA geriatrician and health policy PhD candidate at McMaster University, for a powerful conversation about cognitive decline, dementia vs. Alzheimer’s, and why geriatric medicine is about helping people live as well as they can with the time they have. They talk about diagnosis, driving, loneliness, caregiving realities, and why “none of this should be a surprise,” including the advanced care planning conversations we all avoid (and shouldn’t). __ This episode of The Hart of It All is brought to you by Capital Direct.
