Caring for a loved one with dementia is a profound journey, one that often requires more than just practical caregiving skills. 

It demands emotional resilience, understanding, and a deep dive into the lesser-known aspects of the condition. But what are these lesser-known aspects, and how can you, as a caregiver, better navigate this challenging path?

In this episode, we discuss Anna Edmonds' caregiver journey with her magazine "Reverse" and podcast "Navigating in Reverse." 

Anna shares her transition into caregiving after her mother's dementia diagnosis, while Lizette, a dementia coach, provides insights on Christian caregiving and finding strength through faith. They stress educating caregivers, early dementia diagnosis, and faith's role in caregiving.

Personal coping strategies, whether spiritual, psychological, or physical (like regular exercise), are vital in maintaining the caregiver’s health and emotional stability.
