Dr Blight Part One
Love Your Caregiving Life
01/28/21 • 31 min
“The wife may start to ask herself, Who am I now? Am I more of a caregiver than a wife?
Today’s podcast episode is the first of a two part conversation with Dr Aaron Blight
Dr Blight is the author of the new book, When Caregiving Calls: Guidance as You Care for a Parent, Spouse or Aging Relative.
In this episode Dr Blight speaks with me on the issues we have in identifying as caregivers. Usually we are thrust into helping a loved one and we become a caregiver without even realizing it. Once we realize we are caregivers, we have some decisions to make on how we will go forward into that role.
Listen more on how we create an identity as a caregiver and how that process is one of the most important things to do in order to accept the life we live.

The New Year Can Be Annoying
Love Your Caregiving Life
01/14/21 • 5 min
I know it might not feel like a time to celebrate for you. As a caregiver the beginning of the year can be annoying. Everyone talking about resolutions and how they are going to change their lives. While you’re just trying to keep up with how to get your spouse to doctors appointments during covid.
But, even if for just a quick second, congratulate yourself for making it through. Take a moment to look back at what you survived, fought for and learned.
Want this year to feel better? Where do you start?

Do You Have Hope?
Love Your Caregiving Life
01/07/21 • 9 min
Hope. Sometimes it fuels you and other times it’s a four letter word.
I know how it feels to really have hope and the crushing feeling when you realize it isn’t going to happen.
Life may feel like it’s harder for us but it isn’t impossible and if we can find a way to hope we can stay connected with what fuels us and helps us to continue as caregivers in this world.

Be There For The Moments
Love Your Caregiving Life
12/17/20 • 8 min
Holidays are hard when you aren't a caregiver! Adding on the additional stress of going through a time you feel pressure to be happy when someone you care for is seriously ill is a difficult task to take on.
The hardest part is being available to experience the moments with your loved one. Maybe things aren't extremely bad and your loved one had the energy to enjoy the season. During those happy moments you find yourself pulled away by sadness, stress, exhaustion or maybe your brain just won't stop winding through all the things and you can't just be there.
Listen more to not being able to let go over the holidays in Episode 38 and then head over the www.caregiverconnectionpodcast.com.

Power of Pictures
Love Your Caregiving Life
12/24/20 • 7 min
I love looking at pictures! I can sit and look through photo albums and photo feeds all day.
When we take pictures it's usually to record a happy moment, a beautiful landscape or something weird someone is doing. We don't usually take pictures of the dirty hair, tear streaked faces or moments filled with sadness.
In episode 39 I talk about missed moments, the power of a picture and capturing the moment no matter what. Listen now and then come over to www.caregiverconnectionpodcast.com

The Right To Feel Sad
Love Your Caregiving Life
12/09/20 • 7 min
When you feel sad is it also followed by shame? When being sad around someone have they told you that there is nothing to be sad about because you aren't the one who is sick? Were you the one that told yourself that?
No one should tell you if you deserve to feel sad or not. Especially yourself. Feeling any emotion is valid and you have a lot of them coming through at any time, don't you? Trying to care for a loved one while handling the crazy world you live in plus the holidays?
Listen to Episode 37 and hear more about owning your feelings and allowing yourself to feel them and then find more at www.caregiverconnectionpodcast.com
