Legacy In Action: Rosalynn Carter and the Power of Care

Send us a text

Who cares for the caregiver?

In this powerful and tender conversation, Mandy Barr—President Carter’s great-niece and Engagement Specialist at the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers—opens a door into the heart of caregiving in America today.

With raw honesty and lived experience—as a caregiver, military spouse, and mother of a medically complex child—Mandy Barr brings depth, resilience, and grace to a role millions carry but few see. 

She also brings us something rare: a loving, behind-the-scenes portrait of Rosalynn Carter—her fierce compassion, unwavering presence, and the quiet power that shaped lives and policy.

This is more than a podcast episode—it’s an oral history, a tribute, and a reminder that care is strength, legacy is action, and the human experience begins with being seen.  

Today's episode is brought to you by the Joan of Arc Scroll Medal, a beautiful brass alloy medal, designed by award-winning artist, Pat Benincasa. This uniquely shaped medal is ideal for holiday or as a special occasion gift!    Visit www.patbenincasa-art.com
