Hey, have you ever felt overwhelmed about the Holiday Season? It is supposed to be a time of joy and happiness, and instead we live frustrated and doing a bunch of stuff we really don't care about. So guess what! This year we are ditching all the conventionalism about what we are supposed or not supposed to do and this year is time for you to enjoy the Holidays in whatever way you want to enjoy them!
A Time to Care: The Caregivers Podcast
I’m Isabel Melgarejo, and I was raised never to talk about the uncomfortable things in life and to put myself after everyone else’s needs (just like any other woman I know). In college, after Dad’s passing, I had to change all my beliefs. I had to talk about death, about my mom’s future, and I had to ask for a LOT of favors.
After connecting with many caregivers when I moved to Texas and remembering one of the toughest seasons in my life, I created a program to help caregivers navigate these very uncomfortable conversations and help them through their particular journeys with their loved ones. In this podcast, I want to share advice on how to prioritize your mental health, how to have those difficult conversations, and how to talk you out of feeling guilty and overwhelmed.
