About Joni
Mother • Wife • Licensed Clinical Social Worker • Sandwich Generation Parent • Coach • Speaker
I've been exactly where you are - caring for my toddler while navigating my father's cancer journey, feeling like I was failing everyone despite 20 years of experience helping families navigate medical crises and life's most complex transitions.
That personal journey, marked by emotional intensity and logistical overwhelm, taught me that my professional training wasn't enough to prepare me for actually living in the sandwich generation - parenting a child while caring for my aging parents. I had to learn new strategies, and they changed everything.
Now I help other parents in this impossible position move from surviving to thriving. Through my coaching programs, courses, and community, I share the practical tools and emotional strategies that actually work in the messy reality of family life. My dual perspective as both clinician and caregiver gives me a gift for turning complex emotional terrain into clear, actionable guidance.
When I'm not supporting sandwich generation parents, you'll find me reading, hiking, and connecting with family and friends.
