The Hidden Costs of Caregiving—and How Advisors Can Help with Ken Dychtwald and Ken Cella

This week, Jack Sharry talks with Ken Dychtwald and Ken Cella. Ken Dychtwald is the Founder & CEO of Age Wave. He is a psychologist, gerontologist, and author of 19 books. For decades, Ken has been regarded as the nation’s foremost thought leader on population aging and its profound business, social, financial, and cultural implications for the healthcare workforce.

Ken Cella is the Head of External Affairs at Edward Jones, where he is responsible for fostering strategic partnerships and expanding relations with policymakers, industry leaders, and other influencers to make a greater impact on society. He is also a member of the Edward Jones Enterprise Leadership Team, which guides the firm’s strategy to grow its impact and create value for clients, colleagues, and communities today and into the future.

Together, they unpack one of the most overlooked and under-discussed financial issues in American households: caregiving. Drawing on insights from research commissioned by Edward Jones in partnership with Morning Consult and Age Wave, Ken Cella and Ken Dychtwald share the emotional, financial, and societal costs of caregiving. With nearly half of all Americans either serving as or expecting to become caregivers, this conversation sheds light on what it truly means to care for a loved one and what financial advisors can do to better support clients in navigating these challenges.
