  • Hospital Falls: Why "I Didn't Want To Bother Anyone" Leads to Risk

    When a loved one is in the hospital, one of the most common but preventable risks is a fall.

    In this episode of Hospital Safety with the Care Partner Project, I explore why hospital falls happen and how family caregivers can help reduce the risk.

    You’ll learn what increases fall risk in hospitals, including medications, weakness, confusion, and unfamiliar environments. I also break down practical steps you can take to support safety—especially during bathroom trips, one of the highest-risk moments.

    This episode includes real-life scenarios, caregiver advocacy tips, and simple questions you can ask hospital staff to help protect your loved one.

    Link to Hospital Safety Checklists from The Care Partner Project that are amazing and cover all potential safety issues in the hospital and more!  https://thecarepartnerproject.org/

  • Growth Requires Letting Go Of Who You Used To Be

    What if the real reason you feel stuck… isn’t because you don’t know what to do next?

    It’s because you’re holding on to who you used to be.

    In this episode, we explore the often uncomfortable — but necessary — truth that growth requires releasing old identities, outdated beliefs, and versions of yourself that no longer fit.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why growth can feel like loss
    • How old identities quietly hold you back
    • The emotional resistance to becoming someone new
    • How to let go with self-compassion instead of fear

    If you’ve been feeling the pull toward “more”… but also feeling stuck…

    This episode will help you understand why — and show you how to move forward.

    • Why stagnant seasons often feel empty
    • How growth fuels contribution

    • The Silent Danger of Getting Stuck As We Age

      Series: Growth Creates Meaning

      Episode 2: The Silent Danger of Getting Stuck

      Most people don’t wake up one day and decide to stop growing.

      It happens quietly.

      Gradually.
      Comfortably.

      And that’s why it’s so dangerous.

      Because stuck doesn’t feel like failure.

      It feels like “fine.”

      Today we’re talking about the silent danger of getting stuck…

      And how to know if you’re slowly shrinking your life — even if everything looks stable from the outside.

      We all could use some more energy in order to grow.  Check out my Energy Reset Formula Mini-Course that is easy and quick to do.

      No strict routines → No expensive supplements → No 5 AM wake-ups → Just practical tools that work with real life.
