Crisis, Grief, & Comfort on OPEN MIC

Today, Caroline Shelby from Grief Clarity Labs joins our host, Lori La Bey. Caroline dives into the effects of grieving a parent while still caring for them.

Caroline cared for her mother through Alzheimer’s for 15 years, and what stayed with her the most wasn’t just the progression of the disease, but how much of the grief happened while her mother was still alive. Quietly, and often without language.

Her journey caring for her mother now informs her work as a grief educator, where she supports caregivers in understanding what they are carrying in real time, mentally, emotionally, and in their daily decision-making.

The ladies discuss:

• Anticipatory grief and what it actually looks like during caregiving
• The invisible mental load caregivers carry day to day
• How to respond when roles begin to reverse
• The emotional complexity that often goes unspoken (including anger, guilt, and relief)

#BetterDementiaCare #compassionatecare #QualityIncontinenceProducts 

Our host, Lori La Bey, talks with Deanna Vigliotta is a seasoned healthcare sales leader with more than 30 years of experience in sales and sales management. She currently serves as the National Sales Manager for TZMO USA, INC. (Seni), a premium brand of high-performing adult incontinence products, where she and her team focus on elevating incontinence care as a critical component of the healthcare continuum rather than a commodity.

As a dedicated advocate for dignity, clinical outcomes, and education across the lifespan, Deanna is a frequent speaker at senior living conferences nationwide and has been featured in McKnight’s Senior Living. She recently launched the KinderCinch™ Early Literacy Program, expanding her commitment to education by bringing structured literacy resources into classrooms while supporting long-term community impact. She is also the author of two books: The Traveling Saleslady Meets Live Bedbugs: Sales Tips Galore for Road Warriors and Bedbug in a Mug: When Mom’s Away, reflecting her ability to connect professional insight with practical, real-world applications.

Also joining us is Pam Brandon is the Founder and Strategic Advisor of AGE-u-cate Training Institute and a nationally recognized advocate for older adults and those who care for them.

With more than 25 years of personal and professional experience in caregiving and dementia education, Pam is passionate about advancing person-centered, experiential learning that builds empathy, strengthens trust, and improves quality of life — especially for individuals living with cognitive decline.

She led the development of programs including Dementia Live®, Compassionate Touch®, and other innovative engagement tools that have reached more than 2.5 million participants worldwide. Her work continues to influence aging service providers, healthcare leaders, community organizations, and care partners who are committed to creating more compassionate, informed systems of care.

Learn:

• How high-quality incontinence products and empathy-based training improve quality of life. 
• How and why Seni and Age-U-Cate decided to partner to bring Dementia Live® empathy-based training into skilled nursing and memory care communities. 
• Learn how close dementia care and incontinence care are connected.
• Why the combination of caregiver empathy and premium incontinence products improves comfort and clinical outcomes like skin integrity and sleep quality.
• Partnerships like Seni and AGE-u-cate help support and empower frontline caregivers, making their shifts more manageable and less stressful, which applies to care at home as well. 
• Improving bathing and continence care can reduce vulnerable moments for residents.
• Participating in the Dementia Live® experience changes caregivers' approach to tasks like bathing, dressing, continence support, and more. 
• Why are some administrators hesitant about the cost of premium incontinence products or specialized training?
• How the partnership between Seni and Age-U-Gate is transforming dementia care across long-term care communities.

How Do You Find Yourself Again After Identity Loss, Trauma, and Caregiving?

#Grief #Loss #LifeBalance #Selfcare

Suzy McNamara is an author and speaker who gives a voice to various forms of grief and loss that so often go unnamed and are unaddressed. Suzy wrote the book, The Silkworm, the Magician, and the Sister Tree, a deeply personal and human exploration of caregiving, grief, enduring love, and health & wellness. In 2024, Suzy lost her husband of 37 years, Bob McNamara, to Posterior Cortical Atrophy, an aggressive form of early-onset Alzheimer’s, after caring for him at home for five years. Months earlier, her sister and lifelong best friend, Elizabeth Muslin, died from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. These overlapping losses shape her perspective and inform her writing.

Suzy’s work offers particular insight into early-onset Alzheimer’s, where illness dismantles identity during years when marriages, careers, friendships, and family life are often at their most active. She writes honestly about the daily realities of caregiving, including isolation, exhaustion, and the quiet labor of preserving dignity, countering shame, emotional wellness, and holding onto meaning amid uncertainty. Suzy believes grief is a lonely sport and survival depends on community, shared language, and the courage to name what is often left unsaid. Grounded in sustaining faith practices, she writes to walk alongside readers as they navigate their own losses.

Suzy continues to find meaning through her lifelong love of books, movies, and music, interests she once shared with her husband and sister and now shares with her children and the wider community she has built.

Learn:

1. What identity loss actually feels.
2. How can a person find themselves again after years of being in survival mode?
3. Did writing The Silkworm, the Magician, and the Sister Tree help Suzy understand her own memory, grief, and healing?
4. How can prolonged stress, caregiving, and unresolved grief affect a person’s sense of self over time?
5. Get a couple of tips if you are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s or another condition, and you feel like you are disappearing on this caring journey.
