In this episode of The Soul Goals Podcast, we sit down with Alison to talk about her journey caring for her father as he navigated Parkinson’s, dementia, and palliative care. This conversation is both tender and practical — a look at what it truly means to love someone through the slow goodbye.
Alison shares:
- The emotional and physical realities of palliative care
- What our loved ones’ illness can teach us about connection
- How to hold grief, gratitude, and confusion at the same time
- What she wishes every family knew before stepping into end-of-life caregiving
Whether you are currently caring for a parent or preparing for what may someday come, this conversation offers compassion, grounding, and tools for presence. You are not alone in this journey — and there is meaning even here.
