What if love, loss, and legacy could all live between the pages of a book? Kate Mason sits down with journalist and author Casey Beros to explore the raw, real, and deeply human story behind her book The Next of Kin. Casey shares how she left a thriving life and career in Sydney to return home to Perth and care for her terminally ill father during the height of COVID-19. Together, they discuss the power of advocacy, the complexities of caregiving within families, and the emotional and practical challenges of walking a loved one to the end of life. This episode is not just a conversation about dying—it’s about how to live, love, and prepare better. It's for anyone who’s ever cared for someone or ever will. Listen For1:05 What happens when life hands you a role you never signed up for?5:26 How did Casey's father react to his terminal diagnosis?13:54 Why did Casey write The Next of Kin and who is it really for?30:50 How do carers avoid isolation and family resentment?43:40 What are the hidden emotional costs of caregiving for young children? Leave a rating/review for this podcast with one click  Connect with guest: Casey Beros | Medical Facilitator | Educator | CommunicatorLinkedIn | Website | Next of Kin Book | Instagram | X| Facebook| NewsletterContact Kate:Email | Website | Kate’s Book on Amazon | LinkedIn | Facebook | X
