Dr. Pamela Brewer welcomes Janette Burke to M.E.S.H. for a candid, practical, and deeply human conversation about caregiving, identity, disability, work, and the emotional cost of caring for an aging parent. Janette is a women’s leadership mentor, speaker, podcast host, mental health advocate, and online TV host whose life changed dramatically when caregiving became central to her daily reality. Together, Dr. Brewer and Janette explore what it means to become “a mother to your mother,” how caregiving reshapes time, health, business, friendship, and independence, and why caregivers need support, structure, and permission to care for themselves too.
