What if you could give your older loved one the BEST?

Meet Your Instructor, Isabel.
Here are 5 things you should know about me:
- I'm the author of The Value of Wrinkles: A Young Perspective on How Loving the Old Will Change Your Life. I speak, podcast, and basically do whatever it takes to help people value the older generation more!
- I grew up in a multigenerational household with my Mama and Yeye (paternal grandparents in Cantonese). They took care of me when I was younger and I was blessed beyond measure to take part in caring for them until the passed at 98 and 102.
- Professionally, I've worked at Erickson Senior Living and Montgomery Hospice. Both experiences allowed me to love my elders more. I am so grateful to have learned from some of the most skilled and compassionate professionals.
- I am a PK (pastor's kid) and was blessed to have a dad who humbly loved his parents. His love for God and his family inspires me as I create, write, and speak.
- I am an ABC (an American-born Chinese) and over the years have come to appreciate my heritage so much more (I also wish I paid more attention at Chinese school!).
- I am a wife, a mom of three young kids, and I am always learning and growing.
