Addressing the Taboo Family Topics with Isabel Melgarejo - Caregiver Spotlight
Manage episode 371121815 series 1923925
At 20 years old, Isabel Melgarejo became a family caregiver when her dad passed, and her mom fell into depression. For years Isabel has helped her mom in what she needed. As a project manager in her profession, Isabel learned the power of proactive planning. She now applies this practice to all life’s events.
In this episode, Isabel and I chat about why she became curious about her feelings and what action she took to address her needs. We also talked about the awkward long term care conversations with her mom and how she helped organize her immediate family to align the responsibilities to match mom’s needs. And, learn what daily self-care habit Isabel practices to increase her frequency of good days.
