Aging Parents Abroad — How Members Are Coordinating Across Time Zones
Details
A lot of our members are quietly navigating something that doesn't get talked about much: parents getting older in another country. Some are handling it alone. Some are coordinating with siblings across three time zones. Some are still figuring out what coordinating even looks like.
This virtual roundtable is for members in that situation — or who can see it coming — and who want to compare notes with others who get it. It's not a webinar. There's no expert. We sit on video, introduce ourselves, and go around and talk to each other.
What members usually bring up: how to share decisions with siblings, how to handle healthcare conversations from a distance, what to do with property and finances back home, how to talk to parents about money without it getting tense, how families end up picking one sibling to "be in charge," and the everyday emotional weight of being far away.
Cap: 20 members. Smaller is better here — we want everyone to actually speak if they want to.
Cameras on if you can. We don't record these conversations.
What this isn't: Not legal, medical, financial, or eldercare advice. Members share from their own experience; everyone is encouraged to work with their own licensed professionals for actual decisions. If something comes up that you'd want professional help on, we can talk afterward about the kinds of professionals who handle this.
