About this episode

What does life look like after caregiving ends? Chris Punsalan spent his 20s caring for his aging grandmother, and sharing the story on social media, where he grew a huge following. When she died in 2024, he had to figure out who he was without his grandma in his life. Now, Chris is reflecting on what caregiving has given him, and working his first full-time job at Tendercare, an organization that supports caregivers. This show was created in partnership with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, a leading national philanthropy dedicated to taking bold leaps to transform health in our lifetime and pave the way, together, to a future where health is no longer a privilege, but a right.
