Embracing the Chaos: No means No

Ever found yourself caught in the unexpected whirlwind of caregiving on what you thought was a typical day? Discover how I navigated through night-before-appointment anxiety and carried the weight of overwhelming responsibilities, learning to manage them using personal coping strategies -- humor and flexibility.

Ever had an encounter with an obstinate loved one refusing to get in a car? Hear about my hilarious adventure of getting Zetty into the vehicle and to her appointment on time. You'll learn how patience, empathy, and a light touch can turn even the most frustrating situations into opportunities for connection. There's no caregiver manual, but with creativity in problem-solving, we can ensure our Loved Ones feel secure and loved.

Stick around as I delve into the mental coping strategies I’ve developed through my caregiving journey. I’ll recount the tale of convincing Zetty to get into a 2nd car and arriving at her appointment on time, despite numerous obstacles. You’ll find that perseverance and humor are lifesavers when caring for a LO. Finally, I wrap-up with 3 signature SNUGGLE UPs  reminding us all that it’s okay when things don’t go as planned. Subscribe on your platform of choice, share with a caregiver who needs a hug, and review on iTunes to keep walking this caregiving path with me.
