75% of the workforce face some kind of caregiving responsibility. 83% of those use sick or leave time to provide care, and here\\u2019s the real kicker: 92% report heightened stress, depression, or trouble sleeping.

Caregiving can be beautiful, an honor, and a deeply fulfilling part of our lives. But it can be a financial, social, emotional, and legal burden \\u2014 and it certainly affects our productivity at work.

Lindsay Jurist-Rosner founded Wellthy to care for caregivers. From supportive health plans and services to inclusion and community, Wellthy makes it easier for caregivers to feel supported. They also suggest ways for employers to de-stigmatize caregiving in the workplace, showing them they\\u2019re not alone and providing help and resources. Caregiving isn\\u2019t a new experience. It\\u2019s just become harder to ignore at work. In this episode, we discuss and look at the different ways we can all take better care of each other.

Take a listen to our very special chat with Lindsay about how to best support caregivers so that they can thrive at work and home.
