Have you ever thought, “This isn’t fair. Don’t I deserve happiness?”
Sue Ryan has an amazing professional history with more than thirty years working with over 700 organizations and many industries helping them navigate significant change. And at the same time, for nearly four decades, she has taken on the many roles of caregiving support for family and loved ones.
Sue openly shares with the sisters her feelings of frustration and fear which are all too familiar for many caregivers. Her discovery of confidence, balance and support is a journey we all can learn from. Her goal for caregivers is to learn faster than she did, know they won’t be alone, and feel empowered to navigate their journey.
Listen in as Sue speaks about her current journey with her husband Jack, an Alzheimer's patient, and her ability to "Look at him each day, meet him where he’s at, assess what he has access to, and share time with him from there.”
Sue goes on to say, “I stay very involved in his (her husband Jack) care in my roles as primary caregiver for some responsibilities and care partner with the team at the community where he lives.”
You can't miss the wisdom and peace her words bring.
Self-care is not selfish but is self love
Meet your care recipient where THEY are and without judgment
Love yourself. Give yourself grace. And don’t assume you can do it all!
You choose your perspective every morning
