Is this you?
If you're feeling snowed-under with trying to manage your life while caring for your loved ones and you cannot imagine having time or energy to tend to your own needs, let alone talking about taking on something new that will help you manage your load and move forward with your life, this was created for you.
Many caregivers face hidden challenges that impact their peace and fulfillment. There are many types of caregivers. There are those caring for babies, the elderly and those in between. Sometimes, we are caring for relatives and sometimes not. Caregivers are special people who step in to help others live life when they cannot do so for themselves. When you add special needs on top of the usual daily needs, there is another level of challenges caregivers face.
Having this role during the golden years can bring, yet, another level of challenges. The wear-and-tear on the body, the mental strength required, and the emotional tug-of-war will quickly deplete you in more ways than you ever thought. Add all this to trying to provide loving care for another human being while encountering a too often less helpful system and a non-understanding and sometimes insensitive population, you can feel, to say the least, helpless.
Well, you don't have to feel helpless.
