About this listen
You became a caregiver overnight… Now you need a clear roadmap.
At first, you may brush off the signs of forgetfulness… until you hear that word: dementia. Nothing truly prepares you for a dementia diagnosis, and as you step into this role, you quickly realize how much you have to learn. You want to provide your loved one with the best care possible, but it’s hard to know where to start.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s completely natural. You don’t need to become a caregiving expert overnight—you need a straightforward, compassionate guide to help you create a safe, loving environment for your loved one. With this practical and supportive resource, you’ll find exactly what you need to navigate the journey with confidence.
Inside, you’ll discover:
- A deeper understanding of dementia types and how their symptoms affect daily life.
- Guidance for each stage of dementia, so you know what to expect as changes occur.
- Effective communication techniques designed to foster connection, even as language skills fade.
- Legal and financial planning essentials (and why addressing these early can reduce stress).
- Self-care strategies to help you bring your best self to caregiving every day.
This guide is designed to support you through the caregiving journey, offering tools to stay prepared and find moments of joy along the way. Gain confidence, support your loved one through every stage, and nurture the bond that means so much to you.
