<description> &lt;p&gt;Nancy Treaster, a retired software industry executive turned Certified Caregiving Consultant, co-founded The Caregiver’s Journey with longtime friend Sue Ryan after both personally faced the challenges of &lt;i&gt;dementia caregiving&lt;/i&gt; for multiple family members. Nancy has supported her father through Parkinson’s, her father-in-law through Alzheimer’s, and her husband through Frontotemporal Dementia. Drawing on her professional background and personal experience, Nancy offers a compassionate yet practical approach that empowers &lt;i&gt;family caregivers&lt;/i&gt; to face their caregiving journey with confidence, fewer surprises, and more effective solutions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In this episode, we talk about the difference between &lt;i&gt;palliative care&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;hospice care&lt;/i&gt;—and why both are often underutilized.
