You deserve to feel whole while taking care of others. Picture a pie with four slices: financial, emotional, mental, and physical well-being. You need to keep each slice balanced and replenished because caregiving can take a toll on every piece. Financially, set realistic goals and create a budget to avoid future stress. Emotionally, give yourself space to process your feelings—ignoring them only floods your mind later. Mentally, stay creative and organized, even when drained, and physically, don't skip the exercise and habits that keep your energy steady. And here’s the secret ingredient: stories. Share them, hear them, and connect. Together, we can refill each other’s plates and savor the balance of a fulfilling life.

About Me:

I have cared for many family members across the life span, experiencing the joys and challenges of child-rearing, the poignance of caring for parents, friends, and elder partners. I realized that I could not handle the stress of family caregiving 24/7/365. It was time for a new approach to caring. My health and happiness were slipping away. This is how Think to Thrive for Caregivers evolved. Let your mind meet your heart so you don’t lose track of your life.
