Grab Happy With Elissa Yancey

Join Elissa Yancey as she shares her memoir-in-essays. Grab Happy explores the harrowing, surreal, and often infuriating journey of caregiving for aging parents while working, raising young children, and living through the end of a marriage.

In addition to its stories of combative siblings and elusive car keys, you’ll find hands-on advice gained through decades’ worth of hard-fought experience.
You’ll also discover a strong case for changing the way Americans think about dying.

Filled with relatable scenarios featuring oblivious surgeons, gut-wrenching decisions, and unenviable role reversals, Grab Happy offers a fresh, honest take on critical topics facing more and more grown-up children around the world, especially more than a year into a pandemic.
