Description

Join Karaleigh in an interview with Lisa Tschudi, a full time unpaid caretaker for her disabled daughter. They discuss the burden of caregiving and ways to seek sunshine when we are feeling overwhelmed. Takeaways: 1. It’s about persistence and being willing to put one foot in front of the other and seeking whatever you CAN do. 2. The sunshine is in pushing forward because there is hope. There is the promise of a better tomorrow even though today is awful. 3. In order to be there for your kids, you have to be there for yourself. 4. I am worthy of being comfortable. I am stronger when I am comfortable. 5. It’s all about give and take, but you have to recognize when you’re just giving and giving and giving. It’s important to know what you need and give it to yourself. 6. Learn to pick and choose and prioritize. Don’t feel the need to do everything. 7. 24/7 care is the equivalent of 4.2 full time jobs. 8. How do we fix caregiver burnout? Pay attention the rest of the time! Don’t let it get to that level before we do something about it. Look out for Lisa’s upcoming podcast, Love Doesn’t Pay the Bills. Find more from Karaleigh at karaleighgarrison.com
