Alzheimer's and Hope - A Gift or A Curse?

Are you caring for a spouse with Alzheimer's? You need to know that hope, like optimism, can strengthen your resilience or distort your reality. Hope can also be the key to your surivival.

My husband died four months ago. In caring for him, I journeyed from confusion to determination, from anger to cynicism, from defiance to acceptance. I shunned hope. I grasped for hope. Only when forced to live in the moment did I find peace. Only then did I learn that NOW is where hope lives.

This episode includes a list of ways someone can help a family caregiver.

Drowning In Irrationality: The Brisbane Floods Aftermath & Good Reasons To Not Reason

We're live on the scene next to the murky Brisbane river!

In Episode #279 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: what the flooding in BNE was like, how creativity works at the top of corporate hierarchy, the concept of cultivating a habit that you don't want, a philosophy book by Derek Parfit, whether we would take an irrationality pill if given the chance and some fun hypotheticals.

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!

Pandora’s Gift

The old tale of Pandora was about how her curiosity caused her to open a box and in doing so unleashing the troubles onto the world...YAWN. Just another story of how women cause all the trouble in the world. SIGH. This episode reframes that old tale to share the Pandora’s Gift, card 45 in Alana Fairchild's Oracle Deck, Sacred Rebels.
