Evan talks about ChilltimeTV, a wellness app for caregivers, whereas Savy gives you an overview of Gimme a Break, a nonprofit providing caregivers with self-care resources and services they need and deserve.

If you are a caregiver based in Pennsylvania we share some good news for you. Namely, the new government bill announced by The Pennsylvania Department of Aging which brings new resources for caregivers including care management, benefit counselling,caregiver education and training and financial help (subject to eligibility).

As a food for thought we discuss the idea of fulfilling our dreams as caregivers, including examples from our personal lives showing how following our passions helped us bounce back and find balance in life.
