What is The Gilded Boat?
Most elders in India live in multigenerational homes. The Gilded Boat was born from a simple idea: to rethink elder care as a shared family journey. We hope to spark a fresh, practical approach—one that blends modern insights with the wisdom of family and community.
Why are we sharing our journey?
Because we’ve lived it. Three generations of our family have navigated the ups and downs of elder care—steering, rowing, and sometimes just staying afloat. It has taken ideas, hard work, emotional investment, and a strong support system. And through it all, we’ve learned one truth: no one sails these waters alone.
What’s the purpose of The Gilded Boat?
More than just a book, The Gilded Boat is an initiative to help families approach ageing with grace, resilience, and positivity, even in tough times .
What can it offer?
A listening ear, a guiding hand, and a first port of call for elder care challenges—big and small. Most of all, it’s a reminder that you’re not in this alone.
