What do you do when your loved one with dementia looks at you… and calls you their friend instead of their sister?
It’s a moment that feels like a punch in the gut.But what if how they feel with you matters more than what they call you?
In Episode 244, we explore the heart of relationship-centered dementia care—focusing on emotional connection over factual memory. Through a real caregiver conversation with Helen, you’ll learn practical ways to reconnect with your loved one, even when their words and memories begin to fade.
As a Christian caregiver, your goal isn’t just to be remembered—it’s to reflect Christ’s love in every interaction.
Even when they can’t say your name, they can still feel His peace through you.

Dementia caregiving often begins where the world tells us to start—with the diagnosis, the symptoms, and the stress. But what if we’ve been starting in the wrong place all along?
In Episode 243, we explore how Christian caregivers can shift from the medical model of dementia care to a relationship-centered, biblically grounded approach—one that brings peace, clarity, and God-honoring purpose to a season that often feels overwhelming.
When we shift from a symptom-focused approach to a relationship-centered, God-first mindset, everything changes. We don’t just survive the journey—we walk it with purpose, peace, and perspective.
Let your caregiving be a reflection of God’s love, order, and truth—not the world’s confusion.

Have you ever felt confused—or even frustrated—by your loved one’s fluctuating clarity?
One day, they seem mentally sharp and engaged. The next, they can’t follow a simple conversation.
What’s going on?
In Episode 242, we explore why cognitive decline in dementia isn’t a straight line and how you can respond with wisdom, compassion, and a biblical mindset. You’ll hear a real-life coaching conversation packed with practical insight, spiritual encouragement, and helpful tools for everyday caregiving.
If your loved one seems fine one moment and lost the next, you’re not doing anything wrong. It’s part of the dementia journey.
Instead of reacting with frustration or fear, respond with observation and grace. Watch for patterns. Allow rest. Create routines. Let go of guilt.
And most importantly, trust God with the moments you can’t predict. He sees you. He sees them. And He walks with you both—on the clear days and the confusing ones.

When we think about dementia caregiving, most of us focus on checklists, medications, behavior changes, and coping strategies. But what if we’ve been approaching it all backward?
In Episode 241, we begin a powerful new series that offers a biblical foundation for caregiving. This isn’t just about managing daily tasks—it’s about understanding who God is, who your loved one is, and what He’s doing in and through you.
This episode introduces a Christ-centered framework that will transform how you think, feel, and live out your caregiving calling.
Dementia caregiving can feel overwhelming. But through the lens of Scripture, it becomes something deeper—a calling filled with meaning, growth, and worship.
Your loved one is not lost in God’s eyes.And neither are you.

What do you do when your world changes in the blink of an eye?
In Episode 240, we hear a deeply personal story—one that many caregivers quietly fear but few feel prepared for. After months of navigating medical decisions, doctor visits, and emotional stress, the host’s mother passed away suddenly during what was supposed to be a routine procedure.
But this episode isn’t just about loss. It’s about preparation, peace, and faith—even when everything falls apart.
If you’re caregiving for someone with dementia, the day may come when you have to say goodbye. But you don’t have to meet that moment unprepared or alone.
You can plan.You can trust.And when the time comes, you can rest in God’s providence—knowing you did everything you could, and that He is faithful through it all.

What do you do when the unexpected becomes your reality?
In Episode 239, we hear a deeply personal and emotional reflection on the recent passing of Lizette's mother.
This episode is not just about grief—it's about how preparation, emotional clarity, and faith in God’s sovereignty can carry a caregiver through one of the most difficult moments of their life.
Whether you’re early in your caregiving journey or facing a crisis, this episode offers wisdom grounded in faith, experience, and love.
This episode is a sacred reminder: prepare ahead of time, stay grounded in truth, and trust fully in God’s plan. As Christian caregivers, we don’t grieve as those without hope—we grieve while clinging to a Savior who walks with us through every valley.

As a Christian caregiver, you may feel torn between honoring your aging parent and taking care of yourself. The guilt runs deep—especially when it comes to spending your parent’s money on paid care.
In Episode 238, we hear from Jamila, an only child caring for her 96-year-old mother. Her question is one many caregivers silently carry:“Is it okay to use my mom’s money to hire help so I can take a break?”
Jamila left the conversation with clarity and peace. Not because her circumstances changed overnight, but because she realized she didn’t have to feel guilty anymore.
Christian caregiver, hear this:👉 You are not dishonoring your parent by needing help.👉 You are not selfish for using their resources to care for them well.👉 You are not failing—you are faithfully stewarding what God has placed in your hands.

Have you ever heard your loved one say, “This isn’t my home,” or “I want to go home”—even while they’re sitting in the house they’ve lived in for years?
If so, you know how painful, confusing, and even heartbreaking that moment can be. In Episode 237, we meet Martina, a spousal caregiver in the Philippines, who asks a question many Christian caregivers have wrestled with:
Is it okay to lie to a loved one with dementia when they’re confused about home?
You don’t have to choose between honesty and compassion. As a Christian caregiver, you’re called to speak truth—but in a way that reflects the love of Christ.
When your loved one says, “I want to go home,” pause. Ask questions. Be gentle. Let them guide the moment—and meet them where they are with grace, not guilt.

Is moving your aging parent into your home the best way to care for them—or could it cost you your health and marriage?
In Episode 236, we walk alongside a caregiver caught in one of the most emotional crossroads many Christians face: the desire to honor their parents while also protecting their marriage and family. It’s a raw, real coaching conversation filled with wisdom, faith, and practical guidance.
Caring for your parents is an act of love—but it doesn’t mean sacrificing your marriage, your peace, or your health. Sometimes, the most loving choice is the hardest one: saying no to what they want so you can say yes to what’s truly best.
Let go of guilt. Trust that God sees your heart. And remember—you’re honoring your parents by ensuring they’re cared for, even if it doesn’t look the way you imagined.

Can the way you speak to your loved one make dementia caregiving harder or easier? Absolutely.
Many caregivers believe their role is to keep their spouse happy at all costs—but what if that very mindset is making things more stressful? In Episode 235, we explore a real-life coaching session with Thomas, a husband caring for his wife of nearly 50 years, and uncover the surprising connection between communication, mood, and peace at home.
Dementia caregiving isn’t about fixing everything—it’s about adjusting how you respond. The words you choose, your tone, and your emotions shape the way your loved one feels and reacts.
By focusing on emotional connection over logic, breaking tasks into simple steps, and managing your own stress, you can create a calmer, more peaceful environment for both of you.
You’re not alone in this journey. With faith, patience, and small communication shifts, you can bring more ease into your caregiving experience.

Are you waiting for a definitive diagnosis before making a plan for your loved one’s care? Many caregivers feel stuck, holding off on decisions until they “know for sure” what’s happening. But the reality is, waiting can mean missing valuable time to take proactive steps.
In Episode 234, we explore a real-life coaching session with Jodi, a caregiver for her husband recently diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Together, we unpack why early action—even before a crisis—makes all the difference.
You don’t need to wait for a crisis or a definitive diagnosis to start making positive changes. Small, intentional steps today—from supporting brain health to creating a structured routine—can make a big difference in your loved one’s well-being.
Uncertainty is part of the journey, but God equips us with wisdom, strength, and faith to act now. Trust in His guidance, take proactive steps, and know that you are not alone in this process.

When a parent starts showing signs of dementia, many families assume that someone else will step up to take care of them. But what happens when no one does?
We walk through a real-life coaching session with Jodi, a long-distance caregiver facing the reality of her mother’s cognitive decline. Her biggest challenge? Figuring out who will take on the responsibility—and how to have that tough conversation.
Caregiving shouldn’t fall on one person by default. Waiting too long to discuss roles and responsibilities can lead to stress, conflict, and burnout.
The best way to support your loved one—and each other—is to plan ahead, communicate openly, and work as a team.
Even if you live far away, you can still help. Every contribution matters. Start the conversation today.

One of the hardest parts of dementia caregiving is knowing when to step in—especially when it comes to medication management. Your loved one may want to stay independent, but as mistakes happen, safety must come first.
We dive into a real-life coaching session where Shauna, a dementia caregiver, faces the difficult transition of taking over her mother’s medication management.
Taking over medication management is a tough transition, but it’s a necessary step to keep your loved one safe. Approach it with patience, empathy, and a plan. By involving them in small ways and focusing on their well-being, you can make this change feel supportive rather than restrictive.
You’re not just managing pills—you’re providing peace of mind for both of you.

Do you ever feel like your brain is just done? The endless choices in caregiving—what to cook, how to respond, when to step in—can leave you mentally drained. This exhaustion is called decision fatigue, and it’s one of the biggest burdens of dementia caregiving.
We explore why decision fatigue happens, how it affects caregivers, and the biblical and practical solutions to reduce it.
God has provided wisdom, rest, and community to support you—you don’t have to do it all alone.
Decision fatigue is real, but it doesn’t have to define your caregiving journey. By creating routines, limiting choices, seeking support, and trusting God’s plan, you can lighten the mental load and find peace in caregiving.

When caring for a loved one with dementia, our instinct is often to correct, guide, or keep them on track. But what if the best way to connect wasn’t about following the rules—but breaking them?
In Episode 230, we explore how letting go of structure and embracing playfulness can create meaningful moments of joy, connection, and peace in dementia caregiving.
Dementia caregiving isn’t about following the rules—it’s about creating meaningful connections. When you let go of expectations and focus on joy, laughter, and presence, caregiving becomes less stressful and more fulfilling.
Forget the rules, embrace the moment, and cherish the time you have with your loved one. Those small moments of joy will become the memories you hold onto forever.

As a dementia caregiver, you’re constantly making decisions. Should you spend more time with your loved one, invest in outside help, or find ways to conserve your energy? Every choice has trade-offs, and prioritizing the wrong thing can make your journey harder.
Lizette explores the reality of these trade-offs and how to decide what’s best for your situation.
Caregiving comes with tough choices, and there’s no perfect way to balance time, money, and effort. Some days, you’ll feel overwhelmed. Other days, you’ll wish you could do more. That’s okay.
If today feels heavy, take a deep breath and ask: What’s one small change I can make to ease my load? Start there.

Caregiving for a loved one with dementia is physically and emotionally draining. Many caregivers reach the end of the day utterly exhausted, yet still find themselves staying up late just to enjoy a little peace and quiet. But when rest feels out of reach, how do you reclaim it without guilt?
Lizette walks us through a coaching session with Irene, a dedicated caregiver for her husband, and uncover why rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Caregiving is a marathon, not a sprint—and taking care of yourself ensures you can care for your loved one for the long run.
Many caregivers hesitate to ask for help or prioritize their own well-being. But rest isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessary part of serving well.

The pressure to do everything can lead to stress, exhaustion, and burnout. But what if there was a way to simplify your caregiving responsibilities and focus on what truly matters?
Lizette introduces the 4 D’s framework—a practical method to help caregivers prioritize tasks and lighten their load.
Dementia caregiving is overwhelming, but you don’t have to carry it all alone. By using the 4 D’s—Do, Delay, Delegate, Delete—you can create balance, reduce stress, and focus on what truly matters.

One of the hardest realities of dementia caregiving is realizing that logic doesn’t work. No matter how many times you explain, reason, or correct—your loved one’s brain processes information differently. So how do you handle repetitive questions, confusion, and nighttime anxiety without frustration?
Today we explore how shifting your approach can bring more peace into your caregiving journey.
Dementia caregiving isn’t about fixing your loved one’s thinking—it’s about meeting them where they are. By shifting your responses, you’ll create a more peaceful caregiving experience for both of you.

Dementia caregiving is not something anyone asks for, yet many caregivers find themselves in the role unexpectedly. Whether you're a spouse, an adult child, or a family member stepping in, the truth is clear: you didn’t cause your loved one’s dementia, but now it is your reality.
Today we unpack the emotions, struggles, and faith-based encouragement caregivers need to move forward with clarity, confidence, and grace.
You didn’t cause dementia, but now that it’s here, you have a choice: Will you face it with fear, or will you walk forward with faith and wisdom?
