The Childcare Crisis & Ways to Help with Gloria Riviera

Childcare is one of the most important things in a parent’s toolbox. Without it sanity is at risk. Unfortunately, in the United States there is an ongoing childcare crisis. No matter their socio-economic status, all parents in this country struggle to find the childcare that works best for them. This is so important to discuss, so I am sharing a conversation I had with journalist Gloria Riviera about this and her research. Gloria has spent 20+ years as an ABC News producer and correspondent based around the world covering breaking, investigative and feature stories for the network’s flagship broadcasts and social media platforms — including Good Morning America, World News Tonight, Nightline & the daily news podcast “Start Here.” We discussed what the crisis looks like today, how we got here and what we as citizens of this country can do to help.

To hear more about Gloria’s discoveries on the childcare crisis check out her podcast from Lemonada Media called NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE US. This poignant and timely four-part series shines a spotlight on America’s childcare crisis, sharing diverse stories of families, providers and childcare workers.

Our Shows
Over 50 & Flourishing
Welcome to Over 50 & Flourishing, the show for any woman who feels like she lost her compass in the sea of midlife. I’m here to tell you it’s never too late to change your course and awaken the healthy, wise, and wonderful woman within. My name is Dominique Sachse, and I love to ask questions, which was why I spent nearly three decades of my life in the TV news business. I also started a YouTube channel in 2014 to connect intimately with my community, and I took an even deeper dive in my book Life Makeover - Embrace The Bold, Beautiful and Blessed You. I’ll be the first to say, I’ve made mistakes, and I’m not afraid to be vulnerable and learn from them. I mean let’s face it, this stage of life can be complicated. Children are moving out, relationships are being examined, our parents are aging, and we’re having to manage all of this along with our menopause! It’s easy to lose sight of ourselves, but can I just say.. we matter. So, whether it’s finding ways to enhance and celebrate our own beauty, taking bold steps toward living our best life in the second half of life, finding ways to be healthier, happier, and more spiritually connected, I will bring you thinkers and innovators who share the same passion of flushing out these ideas. It’s my goal to leave us all feeling inspired, thought and intent-driven, and with a sense of purpose in whatever we pursue. Let’s celebrate growing older together and embrace our Prime. It’s our time!
