Tasty Tuesdays Lunch and Learn - Planning for Long Term Care as a Busy Professional

Our Monthly Lunch and Learn at Skyward Studios. Enjoy networking, rotating speakers, and of course FOOD!

Join us on Ocassional Tuesdays at Noon for our Lunch and Learn Series! This month's event is free to both members and the public! Food and beverages are provided but feel free to bring your own lunch!

Our speaker will be Kaleigh Butler with Elevate Financial Group!

About the workshop: It often starts small: extra help at home, a few appointments, someone stepping in “just for now.” Over time, care becomes more frequent, more expensive, and harder to manage. Savings that were meant to support a surviving spouse can disappear faster than expected, while adult children quietly step into roles they never planned for (coordinating care, covering costs, and making difficult decisions under pressure).

This workshop takes a realistic look at how long-term care expenses can ripple through an entire family. We’ll explore why many couples don’t realize the financial impact until it’s already happening, how depleted assets can reshape a spouse’s future, and why lack of planning often places emotional and financial strain on children and loved ones. Long-term care planning isn’t pessimistic; it’s practical. And for most families, the real risk isn’t planning too early, but waiting until the choices are made for you.
