Her personal journey of caring for her father, who has early-onset Alzheimer's, inspired her to help millions of family caregivers like her through technology. Prior to tendercare, Shauna was a tech executive at Meta and led a significant Employee Resource Group, Caregiving@, for aging parents and caregivers. Before that she was a professor of rhetoric at USC. Beyond her professional roles, she contributes to her community, having served on the boards of the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce and the Asia Society. Shauna resides in New York in a historic, converted 1850s barn with her husband, daughter, two step-children, and their pet sheepdog, along with a small flock of chickens.On today's episode, we talk about staying present so as not to miss the moments and finding ways to sneak in caring for ourselves while caring for everyone else.  We talk about Shauna's unconventional childhood and how it has informed her life and career.  We talk about what it means to dedicate your life to solving a big hairy problem and the sacrifices it sometimes takes to do so.  Shauna is so wise and so energetic and so inspiring and I am so glad you are here to get to know her.xxJoFind Shauna and tendercare at: https://trytendercare.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shaunasweeney/Eat My Words Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eatmywordsthepodcast/Eat My Words TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=enEat My Words Youtube: https://youtu.be/z4Wg7UAOI-0?si=8f-Rp-usbskqkMc_","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/xZk1MkDoyVKbVcwsXWtMiXSlOhG_71eqruNMo6H21aQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kYTgx/OGU4NmMxMTBkMzkx/MGU3YjMyZmUzYWRj/MmY5Zi5KUEc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
