Caregiver Recovery & Honoring the Sacred Journey of Caregiving

You know that feeling when you’re on the phone with a truly dear soul-friend, and things get REAL? Like, zero filter, hearts-wide-open? Well, this, my Caregiver friends, is exactly that!

Welcome to the Dancing with Dementia Podcast! In today’s episode, Caregiver Recovery & Honoring the Sacred Journey of Caregiving, my dear friend Ben Lazar and I drop in deep! Ben was a caregiver for his father in his final years, and in this episode, he shares his profound experience of stepping into that role, the soul bonds it deepened, and how his father’s passing became one of the most unexpected gifts of his life. We also explore the emotional complexities of caregiving, the immense responsibility it carries, and the lessons that come with witnessing a loved one’s transition. Whether you're currently caregiving or reflecting on a past journey, this episode is here to offer connection, insight, and support.

⚠️ Heads up, caregivers! This conversation is unfiltered, candid, raw, and explicit! Expect F-bombs, S-bombs, and real talk about both literal and figurative s*** 😉. If you’re listening around little ones or if raw language isn’t your jam, pop in those headphones or proceed with discretion.

🕺💃So, get comfy, take a deep breath, and let’s dance! 💃🕺
