Episode 5

Workplace Transformation on the Horizon with Stela Lupushor

We are seeing a mass exodus of women from the workforce despite the advances that have been made in pay equality, and the way that we work. This exodus is largely due to the “duty of care” that disproportionately falls upon women of all ages. In Episode Five of Caregiver Camp Podcast, we speak with Stela Lupushor and probe the situation as to the challenges organizations face as they grapple to reengineer their workplaces amidst the prolonged pandemic. 

In this episode you will hear:

  • The importance of viewing employees holistically and in terms of life stage needs, as well as how they experience their workplace 
  • Why it’s a fascinating time in history for observing changes in the workplace
  • How supporting working caregivers connects to improved employee well-being
  • Why demographics show that long-term unemployment affects women from 55 - 65 years old more than most
  • Solutions for women experiencing long-term unemployment

Profile picture for Tanya Krim

Tanya Krim

Tanya Krim is a long-distance caregiver for her parents who live in England. So she knows first-hand the emotional landscape and challenges of juggling work, life and caregiving. She chose to augment her 20-year career as a qualitative market researcher by obtaining her M.S. in Gerontology.

In the process, storytelling has become her passion as she believes that storytelling can offer multiple benefits to care recipients as well as their caregivers.

She is now applying her background to crafting meaningful, emotive, insight-rich Legacy Stories/Histories and spearheading storytelling training to help working caregivers as well as their care recipients reminisce, relive, revive and 'reset'.
