I’m Squished. You?

It’s one of the great shocks of middle age. As you catch that first whiff of mortality, with the glare of oncoming college costs and your own retirement speeding toward you — you’re simultaneously side struck by your parents getting older (and older).

If you’re at or near this crossroads, please join me in a journey that (apparently) has no roadmap, exit signs, or rest stops. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, we’ll shake our fists at the powers that be. And maybe we’ll make a difference.
