- (8:54) Understanding the caregiver identity and embracing the caregiver term opens up a door to resources, workshops, support groups, books, conferences, podcasts, and so much more.
- (11:59) The Senior Shower Project is a way to celebrate family caregivers with a party at the beginning of the journey.
- (14:05) People attending the Senior Shower identify with the new caregiver, show their support, and celebrate.
