When your Parents become a second Full-time Job!
Y'all, I've been on a hiatus, not from my making, but because life happens!
You all know that juggling the demands of family caregiving, work, and personal life requires resilience, and last April pushed me to the limit when my father underwent a surprise quadruple bypass surgery. This procedure pushed my caregiving responsibilities, showing something I talk a lot about, what being a part of the sandwich generation means.
I'm super grateful that I share the load with my sister and brothers, something that reminds me of the importance of a support system.
The emotional and physical challenges led me to think of self-care practices, not as luxuries but as lifelines. Non-negotiable routines like travel became essential for maintaining my balance amidst the chaos.
Amidst these trials, I'm launching a six-part series, "No Me Vengas Con Mamadas," focusing on empowerment and self-love. This is about reminding ourselves to prioritize personal needs and set boundaries to prevent burnout. Accepting no BS and only doing what we feel aligned to do!
I'm thrilled to introduce my co-host Nikki Lopez, a gifted hairstylist and creative partner, as we channel resilience into innovative projects. Together, we aim to inspire you to embrace self-care as a foundation for thriving amidst life’s challenges. Join us in this journey of passion and perseverance, and explore how we can all support each other in times of need.
