Gene Lanzoni's life centers around caregiving, both at home and at work. As an only child, Gene and his wife of over 30 years, Elizabeth, took on the responsibility of caring for his aging parents. Professionally, Gene leads the development of thought leadership research and produces content on caregiver trends. He is also a co-lead and founding member of a caregiver-focused employee resource group (ERG).

In this episode of the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, we discuss the origins of the ERG and the numerous benefits it offers to both employers and employees. And, we explore how Gene's spiritual self-care practices and his love of coffee have helped him navigate the challenges of caregiving.
