Alzheimer's Speaks

A Raw Journey Alongside Dementia


Listen Later

Lori La Bey talks with Dayna Steele’s with us and we are going to discuss The Woman in the Mirror podcast and play are adaptations of Dayna's best-selling book, “Surviving Alzheimer’s With Friends, Facebook and a Really Big Glass of Wine.” Dayna candidly chronicled her mother’s journey with Alzheimer’s on social media with unfiltered observations and dark humor. Her refreshing honesty is laced with biting humor, which stands testament to a caregiver’s personal strength and resiliency in the face of extraordinary and unexpected circumstances.

The play has had a successful premiere run in Houston and several readings around the USA. She is working on a 6-episode audio drama podcast which is coming soon.

Learn:

  1. To be authentic
  2. Leveraging humor as a strategy to care
  3. Dealing with the range of emotions
  4. Finding yourself after a loss
  5. Telling Stories to teach
