Am I doing this right?

If you are a caregiver who is wondering “Am I doing this right?” please allow us to tell you that you are, and that you are also not alone in this worry.

There are so many people taking care of so many others in relative solitude that it can be easy to forget that you are part of a tribe. A tribe of well intended people who feel tired, cranky, overwhelmed and insulted, but also who feel love, responsibility and pride. You get to feel a lot of boths, and any time we can remind someone that they are a) not alone, b) deserve support and c) are allowed to feel less than wonderful emotions, it’s a good thing.

We hope that’s what we archived in last week’s holiday focused caregiver discussion hosted with Archangels CEO Alex Drane. You can check out the full recording through the link in our bio AND the caregiver intensity survey developed by Archangels👆

We’d love to be a sounding board if there are things that are causing extra stress around caregiving for you this holiday so update us in the comments! (At the very least we’ll shower you with some good old fashioned positive feedback and love.)

 

Join us in an upcoming event!
