Episode Summary

Hi, my name is Larissa and I'm a Caregiver Support Coach. I work with individuals, couples and families to reach goals that benefit everyone involved.

I am here to help guide, support and offer tips to family members, friends, and loved ones that care for others. If you take care of someone else you are a caregiver.

Why should you have a support coach or even listen to this podcast?

I am here to support you, the caregiver. I am here to help you reduce burnout and learn about yourself, as well as learn new techniques, receive encouragement and be a listening ear. I am a firm believer in having a healthy support system is a benefit to the whole unit. We will work together to enhance support skills by working on strengths and weaknesses, self care and goals.

How will this be done?

Every week there will be a new tip given and a call of action for you to try. (We will work on skills and techniques using goal orientation techniques.)

Why do I do this?

I am your Caregiver Support Coach because I saw a need that was not met. I noticed families and loved ones that needed extra support outside of family therapy. I also believe that everyone has the ability to attain those goals and with the guidance of a Support Coach it can happen.

Episode Summary

Today's tip is about scheduling. How important is scheduling when others are involved as a caregiver? Very important! There are many ways to handle scheduling, however its important that you find an approach that works best for you. As caregivers, we often forget about ourselves and our own needs, so scheduling makes it easier to plan ahead and address concerns. Let me know if this helps and share what you do for scheduling.

Episode Summary

Hey caregivers! We're continuing with the last part of our caregiver workbook. Now, the one thing I highly suggest is when you have multiple people taking care of a person if it's siblings, aides, therapist or any other companions that are providing care, it is so helpful to have a master list of who's who in your workbook. 

In the coming months, I will be putting out a workbook where you guys can go ahead and download or purchase it with all this information in it. If you guys have any questions, please email me at booktips101@gmail.com.

Episode Summary

Hey caregivers, this tip is for you if you're taking care of somebody that is newly menstruating or is about to start menstruating. I know it's hard for some to talk about the emotional aspects that come along with it. That's okay! It's something we should be talking about, because it affects what's going on in our household. So without going too deep with it, let's just cover the basics.
