Welcome to episode one of The Senior Soup Podcast, hosted by Raquel Micit and Ryan Miner.
In this episode, we introduce ourselves and discuss The Senior Soup’s mission and vision behind creating a valuable online resource hub for the DMV region’s older adults and their families.
The Senior Soup’s Mission and Vision
The Senior Soup Podcast and website aim to be a comprehensive digital resource hub that provides valuable information and support for older adults and their families.
We aim to modernize how senior services information is delivered, making it accessible and easily understood.
We will interview healthcare experts and senior service providers to offer older adults and their family members credible and authoritative content to help them on their aging journeys.
The podcast will amplify senior voices in the DMV area and advocate for their needs and best interests at the local, state, and federal levels.
The Senior Soup is a digital advocacy platform that collaborates closely with healthcare and senior service professionals to streamline the distribution and dissemination of informational content.
Our platform ensures that older adults and their families are thoroughly educated and empowered with abundant helpful resources that guide them on their aging journeys.
Raquel Micit and Ryan Miner co-founded The Senior Soup in September 2022.
