Nancy and Sue from The Caregiver's Journey join Shaman Isis to discuss their mission of supporting dementia family caregivers with practical resources and emotional guidance.

• Founded their podcast after experiencing the challenges of caring for spouses with dementia
• Created practical resources because caregivers receive little guidance after a dementia diagnosis
• Share that caregiving can be isolating due to stigma and lack of self-identification as caregivers
• Explain that caregivers often experience "drip grief" as they gradually lose the person they knew
• Discuss common challenging behaviors like sundowning, delusions, wandering, and incontinence
• Warn about the "caregiver cliff" with dementia cases projected to double by 2060 while caregiver numbers decline
• Emphasize the importance of finding support through community groups and online resources
• Advocate for self-care as essential rather than optional for effective caregiving
• Encourage caregivers to "give yourself grace" and recognize perfection isn't possible
• Highlight a promising Medicare pilot program that may improve support for dementia caregivers
