The One Where ... CRISIS AND CAREGIVERS COLLLIDE We share our story and explain how why I wrote the MODERN GUIDE TO CAREGIVING

Make Your Own Fun™ is about reclaiming choice when caregiving limits everything else. This section isn’t about forced positivity or pretending illness is easy. It’s about intentionally creating moments of comfort, humor, and relief—whatever that looks like for you. Through guided prompts, you’ll identify what soothes your nervous system, supports your relationships, and helps you get through this season with more ease and humanity.

THE ONE WHERE ... We learn how to build resilience, define self-renewal, and make space for the grand champion of care -- YOU!

This course helps you define how you want to show up as a caregiver — with clarity, compassion, and sustainability. Through guided assessments, you’ll explore stress responses, boundaries, frustration triggers, and attachment patterns. You’ll learn to build an emotional safety zone, expand your window of tolerance, and create intentional inflection points that support both you and your care style over time.

We start this section with an investigation into how you talk to yourself. One of the most essential parts of our self-care and self-renewal practices is having a friendly relationship with ourselves. And a good portion of that connection is based on the very personal inner mental conversation, or self-talk. Here, we'll explore how the relationship with yourself impacts your caregiving dynamic -- especially during the hardest season of life.
