    Jim Towey Founder of Aging with Dignity, Five Wishes,  & Author of "To Love and Be Loved: A personal portrait of Mother Teresa"
    All Home Care Matters was honored to welcome a distinguished guest, Mr. Jim Towey.
     
     
    Jim Towey was a trusted advisor and personal friend of Mother Teresa of Calcutta for twelve years and did the first reading at her Mass of Canonization in Saint Peter’s Square. He headed the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives under George W. Bush and served on his senior staff.
     
     
    Jim's career spans the presidency of two Catholic colleges for thirteen years, a seven-year stint as a US Senate staffer, and the leadership of Florida’s 40,000-employee health and human services agency. In 1996, with Mother Teresa’s encouragement, he founded the nonprofit advocacy organization Aging with Dignity and created the Five Wishes advance directive, which has sold over 40 million copies and is used in all fifty states.
     
     
    Towey met his wife, Mary, in Mother Teresa’s Washington, DC, AIDS home, and they have five children and three grandchildren. He continues to provide pro bono legal services for the Missionaries of Charity. His book, To Love and Be Loved: A Personal Portrait of Mother Teresa, was published by Simon and Schuster in September 2022.

    Understanding the Deeper Process and Purpose of the Midlife Passage with Everyday Spirituality Co-host Nancy Monson

    Understanding the Deeper Process and Purpose of the Midlife Passage with Everyday Spirituality Co-host Nancy Monson

    Midlife can bring unexpected life events that create turmoil. Coupled with the physical changes that many women experience, it is a time that can throw them into a feeling of confusion, helplessness and frustration—made even more difficult when old ways of dealing with things no longer seem to work. Motivations that used to carry a woman through tough times give way to deeply buried longings from an earlier time. The truth is there is a deeper process unfolding at the very essence of a woman’s being—her soul is calling her, urging her, to awaken to her true purpose and live her heart’s deepest desire. During this episode, Dr Pat and Nancy will be exploring how this passage unfolds and what women can do to support themselves to awaken to their soul’s purpose.
