    National Family Caregiver's Month - Service Dog Highlights
    Nov 15 2023
    In our first bonus episode for National Family Caregiver month, we revisit abridged versions from two episodes of The Caregiving Soul about service animals. Dannelle speaks with Aubree and Makenzie from Canine Companions, a nonprofit providing free service dogs to veterans and individuals with disabilities. They delve into the unique ways these dogs empower their handlers, discussing topics such as PTSD support, alert systems, and life-changing independence. Later, Cienna Ditri shares her inspiring journey with her service dogs, highlighting how Piper's remarkable abilities have revolutionized her life, from alerting to low blood sugar to preventing fainting episodes. From opening doors and picking up dropped items, to emotional support and helping to reduce stress and anxiety, service animals can help their owners live more independent and fulfilling lives.

  • Thank you for Season 2!

    Thank you for Season 2!
    Jul 10 2023

    Thank you so much for another wonderful season! As we're wrapping up season two, I'd like to extend a big thank you for joining us in some difficult but critical, encouraging, and always hope-filled conversations.

    Throughout this season, we learned from the lived experiences of care partners and experts who shared really eye-opening insights into the impact on our close relationships and how we can work our way through hard conversations and unexpected caregiving challenges with our sanity intact.

    I hope the stories and perspectives shared by our incredible guests make a positive difference that we know won't make the mountain any smaller, but gives you some provision, ideas, and faith to sustain you to the other side of your caregiving journey. They certainly have for me.
