The “Why” of Big Love

Aging is a universal experience, yet too often, it’s met with fear, uncertainty, and isolation. Families struggle to have honest conversations, resources feel scattered, and seniors are left navigating a complicated system without clear guidance.

The gap? The traditional approach to aging lacks celebration, confidence, and proactive planning. It’s time for a new vision—one that embraces aging as a powerful, beautiful, and connected journey.

Big Love is here to flip the script. We’re not just another aging event—we’re creating a movement where seniors and their families come together to celebrate life, gain knowledge, and build lasting support networks.

Collaboration to Community

The Big Love Approach

Big Love was born from a collaborative spirit. The very process of creating this event – bringing together diverse expertise, passionate individuals, and a shared commitment to transforming the aging experience – reflects the core values we champion. We believe that by working together, we can achieve far more than we could alone.

This same principle applies to the journey of aging itself. It’s a process that thrives on open communication, shared decision-making, and a strong network of support. Big Love is designed to facilitate that collaboration, providing a space where families can connect, learn, and build lasting relationships that will empower them to navigate the challenges and celebrate the joys of aging together.

Facing the Challenges of Aging

With Courage and Love

Aging is a natural part of life, but it often comes with unique challenges:

  • Difficult Conversations – Struggling to talk about the future with loved ones?
  • Feeling Overwhelmed – Unsure where to start with senior care, legal planning, or finances?
  • Emotional Barriers – Is fear, uncertainty, or grief preventing you from making decisions?
  • Reactive Decision-Making – Are you worried about making major choices in a crisis?
  • Strained Family Relationships – Is stress impacting how you navigate aging as a family?

If any of these resonate, you’re not alone. Big Love is here to provide the clarity, support, and confidence you need to move forward with peace and power.
