🎧 Parents Changing: A Journey of Acceptance
What does acceptance look like when the parent you’ve always relied on now relies on you? In Episode 16, I share an honest journey of supporting my mom through changing health and memory challenges. Redefining a “good day,” adjusting expectations, and making room for new caregiving responsibilities while continuing to be a parent myself.
I share my 10-point caring plan that has evolved, including organizational tools, daily reminders, and ways to support my mom’s sense of agency. I’m learning acceptance as a practice, and not a destination, while also being intentional on caring for myself while caring for someone I love.
🔄 Recognize the shift from expecting a parent to manage everything independently to taking on a coordinating role.
📋 10-point caring plan for the role of routines, reminders, and accessible information.
🤝 Consider how everyday choices can help preserve a loved one’s sense of agency.
🌿 Reflect on making room for caregiving without losing sight of personal capacity, rest, and joy.
