Three suitcases ... and one thing I didn't expect.
|
Hi there, It's been a little quiet on my end since the book launch. But life certainly hasn't been standing still! I've headed out with three suitcases and my laptop bag for my next adventure, which includes going back to school. RV school, of all things! 😂 But somewhere in the middle of packing, I realized something about my caregiving journey, the freedom that's beginning to open up, and why the E in my I.C.A.R.E. Method, Empowered Caregiver Support, matters so much. Sometimes caring for ourselves means remembering that we have a life to live, too. That caring for others doesn't mean losing ourselves and our own life. And after a recent reminder of just how quickly life can change, I'm taking that message to heart. I'd love to share this latest chapter with you. Read Three Suitcases and a Life That's Opening Up With love, |

Hi, It’s here. My Caregiving Essentials: What to Say, Do, and Prepare Before Caregiving Becomes Your Second Full-Time Job is officially live on Amazon today. After years of caregiving, months of writing, revising, questioning, and finally letting the book leave my hands, this feels a little surreal. But mostly, I feel grateful. I wrote this book for adult children with aging parents who want to prepare before caregiving becomes overwhelming, especially those of us who are already balancing...
Hi, For the past several years, I’ve been immersed in caregiving with my family. It began eleven years ago, when my mom suffered a stroke at the dinner table, and later deepened into a long caregiving journey with my dad. Several months ago, I was sitting by his bedside during one of his many hospital admissions. While he rested, I found myself reflecting on everything that had happened since the cardiac event that began this chapter of our lives more than eight years ago. Over the years,...
