Shawn Caprice Houston helps families prepare for the realities of aging, caregiving, and legacy — before the crisis forces their hand.
Most families don't plan for caregiving. They plan for everything else — the vacation, the retirement, the wedding — and then one day the phone rings, and life changes overnight. Shawn Caprice Houston has been in that moment. She cared for both of her parents at the same time while building a 20-year career in Medicare Advantage and senior primary care. She knows what it costs to be unprepared. And she knows what it takes to be ready. Her books, her speaking, and her tools exist for one reason: so your family doesn't have to figure it out alone in the middle of a crisis.
