This week, Rayna Neises, your host, speaks with Jenn Chan. Jenn is a CEO, certified senior advisor, certified caregiving consultant, and a support group facilitator. Inspired by caregiving for her grandmother, Jenn has dedicated her career to elevating the family caregiver role with fun, love, and positivity.  She believes caregiving is a lifestyle and that becoming a senior caregiver is a life milestone worth celebrating. Jenn shares the following insights: 

• (4:26)  A digital detox, where you unplug from all electronics, is a great self-care tip.
• (7:00)  Self-care can be just checking in with yourself emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
• (8:54)  Understanding the caregiver identity and embracing the caregiver term opens up a door to resources, workshops, support groups, books, conferences, podcasts, and so much more.
• (11:59)  The Senior Shower Project is a way to celebrate family caregivers with a party at the beginning of the journey.  
• (14:05)  People attending the Senior Shower identify with the new caregiver,  show their support, and celebrate.  
• (18:03)  The celebration can open doors to bring resources to the caregiver to grow their care team.
