Cardinal Musings with Jane Barton
For the past 17 years, I’ve served as a national speaker and writer focused on the issues of aging, caregiving, and the end of life. And yet, I seemingly have more to say about the Cardinal issues of life—those facets of life of paramount importance. Consequently, I'm delighted to invite you to my virtual kitchen table where we'll chat about what matters most in life. Wondering if my musings are worthy of your time and attention? Well, if you’ve ever wondered and worried about getting older. If you’re concerned about how to answer the call to care for family and friends. If you’re anxious about the prospect of aging solo. If you’re mired in the darkness of your grief. If you’re scared to death of death. If you’re interested in living by design, not by default, then we stand on common ground. We share some common concerns. We definitely have something to chat about! So, what do you say? Care to muse with me? Please note, Cardinal Musings with Jane Barton is an educational podcast.

Listening is a Cardinal Concern - a human ability we can hone and refine over the course of a lifetime. I learned how to listen as a young girl by observing my mom. She was a masterful listener who shared her gift with family, friends, and our neighbors. Today, due to our collective experience of COVID, we need courageous, compassionate listeners to bear witness to all we have endured over the past year. Consequently, we are all called to listen.
