about us
dōt.age is a digital space for Gen Xers navigating the uncharted territory of caring for aging parents. There is no roadmap for this time in life, so we’re creating one together.
dōt.age is a groundbreaking hub where real talk meets real solutions, where the unfiltered truth of caregiving for parents and elders collides with the support we all need. Through candid stories, tangible solutions, and a collaborative network of shared resources and experiences, we’re not just figuring it out, we’re creating an encyclopedia of care for the generation that never gets a manual.
dōt.age is mapping the Gen X journey in real-time. Whether it’s finding the appropriate level of aged care, filling out assisted living facility applications, deciphering Medicare forms, waiting on hold for social security, figuring out finance, parsing passwords, managing the emotional rollercoaster, or simply asking, am I the only one dealing with this? - dōt.age provides the guidance, humor, and solidarity to take another step forward.
dōt.age is not sugarcoating and not outdated advice—just the raw, practical, and even hilarious reality of what it means to be a part of our parents’ aging process. Because if no one else is going to prepare us for this, we’ll do it ourselves—together. Of course we will, we’re Generation X. And we’re dōt.age
our mission
dōtage is a digital space for Gen Xers who are caring for aging parents to find stories, solutions, resources, and even mixtapes to make sense of a journey nobody prepared us for without losing our minds (or sense of humor)
our vision
we envision a world where no Gen Xer has to navigate the chaos of elder care alone. Where finding answers is as simple as opening your favorite daily read, and where sharing your story isn’t just cathartic—it actively helps someone else.
