This podcast is in partnership with the San Diego/Imperial County chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, and is a place where everyday people can speak on their experiences, their struggles, and the everyday highs and lows that come with their family member's Alzheimer's journey. The goal of this podcast is to create a space of comradery, connecting listeners with this support group and hopefully encouraging people to ask questions, give advice, and share their own stories.
Preparing for the More Advanced Phases of the Caregiving Journey
In this episode we discuss how caregivers can ‘prepare themselves’ for the more advanced phases of their caregiving journey, how to communicate next steps with family and support systems, and how to take care of yourself throughout this process. We also discuss how to make talking about next steps and “the end” more comfortable and less taboo.

Exercise, Movement & Caregiving
In this episode, we discuss the importance of exercise and movement for our loved ones. We explore how to motivate them to exercise, various types of activities and exercises to try, and equally important, the significance of movement and exercise for the caregivers themselves.

Having the Difficult Discussions about Caregiving
This month we discuss how we approach the difficult discussions of caregiving (i.e. Power of Attorney (POA) considerations, live-saving measures, care facility, in-home care etc) with our elderly loved ones, our families, and others on our care team. Sometimes these conversations are meant with anger, sadness, suspicion, or an outright refusal to have the discussion all together. We discuss ways to break through and put a care plan in place to hopefully avoid chaos later.
