How to Be the Best Caregiver You Can Be Without Being Perfect

Drs. Barry Jacobs and Julia Mayer join the podcast for a great conversation about bringing your best to caregiving, reminding us that caregivers don’t have to be perfect.  As authors and clinical psychologists, Barry and Julia support family caregivers, guiding them through the messiness of caring for a loved one.  As a married couple, they’ve had lived experience with caring for their parents and in-laws with Alzheimer’s and dementia.  Dealing with caregiving issues in their personal lives taught them invaluable lessons, which they now share with clients and readers of their books.  

Barry and Julia’s newest book is the “AARP Caregiver Answer Book” -   Purchase your copy at caregiveranswerbook.com
