Caring Conversations for the Journey With Aging Parents
For many leaders, the most complex venture they’ll navigate isn’t in the boardroo, it’s at home. Supporting aging parents demands vision, strategy, and empathy, yet few feel fully prepared for the decisions and conversations that come with this stage of life.
In this session, Ben Kruger (YPO Malibu), healthcare entrepreneur, co-founder of Sollis Health, and now leading Appian, a concierge service for aging, shares a clear, practical framework for navigating this delicate transition. With deep experience in patient-centered care, Ben offers grounded guidance for a challenge faced by countless families.
In this recording, you’ll learn how to:
• Identify early signs of physical, cognitive, and emotional decline before crisis points
• Approach difficult conversations with empathy while still moving decisions forward
• Navigate resistance and family dynamics without burnout
• Use practical checklists and resources to assess risks and build an actionable, sustainable plan
Walk away with tools to help you align your family, reduce stress, and create better outcomes for your parents, and for yourself.
