After 45 years as a nurse and caregiver, I’ve personally experienced the paucity of self-care that stems from giving your life to helping others.
Through private coaching, speaking events, and my book, Self-care Strategies for Family Caregivers, I help emotionally and physically drained caregivers re-prioritize themselves through holistic, practical strategies to well-being, rebuilding resilience, and battling burnout so they can regain control over their lives and rediscover their authentic self.
Personalized Coaching
Through 1:1 coaching, I help overwhelmed caregivers re-discover themselves by rewriting the narrative that controls their lives. Together, we can identify opportunities for applying life-changing strategies that can transform your health and wellbeing.
Workshops and Retreats
By providing full-length keynote presentations and 18-minute TED-talk like high-powered speeches, your group will be inspired to take action by setting aside beliefs that no longer serve them and taking steps to become the best version of themselves.
Educational Resources
In my book, Self-care Strategies for Family Caregivers, you will find five arenas of life that require self-care for anyone serving as a caregiver. You will also find recommendations and tools that help you overcome the myriad obstacles of prioritizing self-care.

Thinking so much, sometimes my brain hurts!
If you’re the primary thinker and doer in your household, I want you to know I completely understand how exhausted and worn-down you might feel. I urge you to consider my three-part remedy because whatever makes YOUR life easier, will inevitably make your loved-one’s life better! Simplifying your plans, your tasks and your routines can only serve to make your burden lighter.
Self-Care, Even When You Don’t Feel Like It!
We also invent reasons for avoiding self-care, sometimes because we’ve confused self-care with pampering or self-indulgence (as might be the case with the nail scenario above). Self-care isn’t simply about making ourselves feel important (worthy?) or comfortable, or attractive – self-care is about consciously taking action to feed the soul, nourish the body, nurture the spirit and most of all, replenish the relationship we’re building with ourselves!
Creating Calm, Even When Your Day Gets Hi-Jacked. . .
It was a beautiful winter day; all was going remarkably well! As a caregiver, you know to spot these days, to cherish them and appreciate that they may not be frequent experiences in your week or even your month. This was one of those days, lovely in every respect.
