Sinossi

You're carrying everyone. It's time to carry yourself, too.

You have a full-time job. Two aging parents who need more every month. Kids who still need you. And a self that disappeared somewhere along the way.

If you're a woman in your 40s or 50s sandwiched between the demands of aging parents and the needs of your children — while somehow holding down a career — this book was written for you. Not to tell you to "do self-care." Not to lecture you about boundaries. But to give you a real, practical framework for surviving the impossible — and eventually thriving again.

Inside Caught in the Middle, you'll find:

  • Why women in the sandwich generation burn out faster — and what's really happening in your body and brain
  • A proven framework for setting limits without guilt, conflict, or abandoning the people you love
  • Practical tools for managing elder care logistics without losing your career or your mind
  • How to stop running on empty and start reclaiming the life that is still yours to live
  • Scripts, exercises, and reflection prompts you can use immediately — no therapist required

This isn't a book about giving up. It's a book about doing this differently — so you don't become the next person who needs taking care of.

For every woman who has ever Googled "caregiver burnout" at midnight, this is the guide she needed to find.
