For women over 50, caregiving can feel invisible — but it can also uncover resilience, healing, and even unexpected joy.

When her mother was diagnosed with early-onset dementia, Katrina Prescott’s life changed overnight. Exhausted and overwhelmed, she faced caregiver burnout, grief, and the painful realities of family caregiving. But in the crucible of caregiving, something unexpected happened: resilience, forgiveness, and a stronger mother-daughter relationship began to emerge.

In this powerful conversation, Katrina shares:

• How caregiving after dementia diagnosis reshaped her relationship with her mother.
• Practical caregiver support strategies, from finding respite care to practicing self-care for caregivers through conscious breathing.
• How resilience through caregiving challenges created space for healing and forgiveness.
• The inspiration behind her viral series “Things Not to Say to a Caregiver,” which has reached over a million viewers and opened crucial conversations about grief and compassion.

For anyone who has felt unseen while caring for a loved one, Katrina’s story is validation and hope. Her message is simple but powerful: “You’re doing the best you can in the circumstances you’re in, with the tools and resources you have right now.”
