What happens when you're faced over and over again with choices where the decision that feels right to you isn't the "conventional" one? How do you find the courage to follow your conviction when others are likely to judge your choices?

Meet Kristina Driscoll, a woman defined by her fierce determination and unique life journey. Venturing off the conventional path, Kristina married a man 24 years her senior. Her unwavering convictions served as her north star as she navigated the challenges that followed - from becoming the caregiver to her husband with early onset Alzheimer's while raising their young son, to deciding whether to date as her husband's illness progressed. She's learned patience and resilience in the face of adversity and now shares these lessons as the host of her own podcast, She's Brave.

In this episode, you'll:

• Discover empowering ways to care for a loved one suffering from Alzheimer's.
• Learn to navigate the daunting world of complex  decision making, finding the middle ground between instincts and expert advice.
• Understand the vital role of self-care in caregiving, and realize the importance of involving professionals in this journey.
• Explore the realm of unconventional choices in caregiving, learn about the courage it takes and the difference it can make.
• Get insights on how to balance personal desires, such as love and companionship, with dedication to your role as a caregiver.
