Listen "A caregiver discovers her secret power"
Episode Synopsis
Debbie has been a caregiver for over 40 years to her father, disabled son and husband which led her to giving everything that she had and feeling angry, resentful, overwhelmed and exhausted along the way.
She was always so busy thinking about what she needed to do for everyone else and never considering that she needed to care for herself too.
Then on her 50th birthday she took a trip to Bermuda with her friends and for the first time in her adult life she felt like she could actually focus on herself. It was absolutely amazing. She had lost herself and had forgotten the things that she was passionate about and enjoyed doing. Since that trip in 2013, she slowly started to focus on herself and prioritize her own care. Those constant negative feelings of overwhelm, jealousy, anger and exhaustion faded. Debbie transformed her life one day at a time and now helps other caregivers do the same.
