Caregiving is an act of love but it also comes with a kind of grief few people talk about.

In this episode, I sit down with Ty Lewis, a special education teacher, reading specialist, and full-time caregiver to her mom living with dementia. Ty shares what it’s like to slowly watch a parent change, how grief can begin long before goodbye, and why caregivers often feel invisible while carrying so much responsibility.

This honest conversation explores:

• Recognizing when memory loss is more than aging

• Navigating anticipatory grief

• Balancing caregiving, work, and emotional health

• Why sharing real caregiving moments online matters

If you’re caring for someone with dementia or loving someone who is, this episode will help you feel seen, understood, and less alone.

🎧 Listen. Reflect. Share with a caregiver who needs this.
