Do you ever feel like you’re missing out on life as a young caregiver? Do you feel like no other friends are going through what you are & have a solid lack of support; that you don't have a future in dating or starting your own family, a hard time maintaining personal and social relationships with others?
By engaging with lots of young caregivers over the past few years, the #1 common theme I hear is that they feel isolated because no one their age or friends in their circle really get them. But guess what you are not alone.
Do you recall that moment when you made a connection with another young caregiver that made your world shift a little for the better? This episode shares how I started connecting with other young caregivers and how crucial it was to making me feel like I was not the only one going through this journey.
How having a young caregiver support group saved me
How knowing I wasn’t alone saved me
How knowing I had a place to turn to when I was feeling at my very lowest saved me; because even though I couldn’t reach out and touch the person, sit with them over coffee or have a few drinks, or even know what they looked like or their voice sounded like - their words were like the blanket of warm comfort and reassurance that everything would be ok.
I hope after listening to this episode you'll walk away knowing your season of loneliness is coming to a close and that you have support and community at your fingertips.
