  • Overcoming Loneliness in Caregiving with Kathy Anderson
    Aug 15 2023

    Sometimes, letting your loved ones help you is the best way of demonstrating how much you love them. 


    In today's episode, I'm joined by Kathy Anderson, who's been a Medical Social Worker for over 30 years, has co-lead a Grief Camp for children for over 20+ years, is a Certified Healing Touch practitioner, and owns an incomparable knowledge and capacity for the caregiving population. 


    Throughout our conversation, we explore the intensity of loneliness in caregiving, why it can be such an overwhelming experience, and how tiring it can be. Kathy shares her thoughts on the importance of community, self-care, and gratitude in caregiving, embracing caregiving as a lifestyle, and what being a caregiver means to her. 


    Additionally, we talk about coping mechanisms for caregivers, Kathy's experiences caregiving for others as a child, how to deal with caregiving for people who can't communicate in a traditional manner, and more. 


    Tune in and listen to the first episode of Where's My Other Shoe. You'll discover an utterly different, comforting, and fulfilling way of looking at caregiving.
