UNFINISHED Workbook: Navigating the Parent Care Pivot

Care for them. Do not disappear into it.

When an ageing parent begins to need help, an adult child can become the family's project manager, translator, financial detective, negotiator and emotional shock absorber almost overnight. This workbook helps you move from private worry and crisis-driven decisions to a shared, practical plan.

This 26-page digital workbook uses Unfinished's three-part approach - Face It, Shape It and Own It - across the major domains shaping this transition. Inside, you will:

• Face the five moments most families encounter: first decline, the aged care maze, money and pension, sibling dynamics, and legacy.
• Complete honest audits that reveal what has changed, what is unclear and what you have been carrying silently.
• Build first-step plans, scripts and shared-care arrangements that keep your parent involved wherever possible.
• Use the Parent Care Checklist, Conversation Starter Kit, Legacy Plan and 90-Day Master Planner to turn reflection into action.
• Create space for anticipatory grief and your own wellbeing alongside the medical, financial and administrative work.

What you will leave with: A structured parent-care roadmap, clearer family responsibilities, practical conversations to begin and a 90-day plan that reduces the risk of waiting for the next crisis.

Designed for: Adult children who have become responsible for coordinating an ageing parent's care, finances, family communication and future planning.
