Summary

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Mike George as guest to the show.

About Mike George:

Mike George helps families rewrite their caregiving story – from one of sacrifice and exhaustion to one of joy, strength and resilience. A family caregiver himself for 3 decades, Mike intimately understands the burdens of supporting the primary care of a loved one. But he also knows the tremendous fulfillment it can bring.

This lived experience led him to create The Soaring Families WayTM, a proven method that can be every family’s reliable companion on their journey to joy. He is a speaker, author, and co-founder of Soaring Families whose mission is to redefine caregiving for families.
