Together, they explore:

• The emotional realities of family caregiving

• Caregiving within faith communities
• Intergenerational caregiving and storytelling
• Reducing fear around aging, illness, and end-of-life conversations

Dr. Hubbard also discusses how churches and communities can become trusted spaces for caregiving preparation, support, and healing — reframing caregiving not as crisis, but as stewardship, love, and legacy.
