For this festive blog post and podcast episode, I hope you can join me in celebrating how special you are, in caring for a loved one or friend, often without thanks or recognition.
Wherever you are on your caring journey or in the world, even if you are not sure if the term carer refers to you, the act of caring for another human being, without a financial or tangible reward, is one of the most powerful and inspiring activities we, as a civilization, are capable of.
The word carer or caregiver, so much more than four letters and they can't define who we are!
Caring for another human being, for no obvious reward, is made up of:
love, respect and compassion.
hope, friendship and kindness.
selflessness, loyalty and meaning.
These are values, and values and strengths are what make a carer so special, what makes you so special.
This is the last official blog post for 2020, however, I am not done with 2020, just yet! So, keep an eye on our blog and podcast pages for some bonus posts and episodes during the rest of December, including my Reset 2021 challenge!
