SUMMARY:The Pride of Caring: Mental Health & Caregiving

SUMMARY:Caregiving is Not A Cookie Cut Process: Difficult Situations\, High Conflict Relationships and Its Impact on You as a Caregiver
DESCRIPTION:Sometimes our lives our already overwhelming and when the role of becoming a caregiver enters the picture often unexpectedly the additional responsibilities around difficult decision making and High Conflict Situations throw a wrench into previously established routines and we become “out of control.” An out of control person in a relationship is in fight\, flight and fear mode and often develops toxic compensatory behavior that drives high conflict situations. That is true for ourselves as caregivers and often the loved one we care for. Sometimes\, caregiving relationships devolve into “Power and Control” by one person or the other. When any relationship becomes imbalanced\, one or both people can feel like they are losing control. The result can be anger or resentment. In this TYOF Caregiving series\, we will talk about toxic caregiving habits that negatively affect caregiver and care receiver relationships from a shared perspective. \nThis workshop will discuss growing healthy relationships\, understanding how to navigate more difficult caregiving situations and even deal with what might be toxic relationships and clinically lay out for the listener plans of actions to prevent such a situation or navigate the difficult situation more effectively. \n

SUMMARY:LOLA - Loss of Life Advocates
DESCRIPTION:If you ask someone if they are prepared for a life transition or loss\, they generally say they dont want to think about it\, or they lean in and say\, “I think so.” There is so much that goes into getting someone prepared and when you do the work\, afterwards you will have the feeling of comfort knowing at the time of a transition or loss\, all the decisions have been discussed or made already. LOLA walks you through as a guide talking about all the things together. “I realized after losing my father in 2014 and then my husband shortly afterwards\, there was no one to be a guide for me – that is when I came up with Loss of Life Advocates\, named after my mother\, to help individuals\, and families prepare.” \n
