For years, I’d felt physically and emotionally overwhelmed with caring for my special-needs son, my husband’s health needs, working outside of the home, running my own business, and caring for general household needs (like the never-ending-laundry-story and meals) on top of it all. There were two big questions always looming:
Was there anybody to take care of me? How was I supposed to take care of myself?
Things got even more overwhelming when, at one point, I was also providing in-home care for my 93-year-old great-aunt, which included lifting her, taking care of her toileting, showering, and other personal-care needs. I love taking care of my family, but I didn’t love the stress-induced weight gain, constant change of emotions, and lack of sleep.
It was crushing.
It became clear that I needed simple solutions to support the health of my family members AND to help me help myself.
Now my life is dramatically different. I used to have to physically keep my son still for hours each night, just so he’d fall asleep (paired with him waking throughout the night). It takes him minutes to fall asleep now and he stays asleep ALL. NIGHT. LONG. We did it without overwhelming his already taxed body with sleeping pills or synthetic supplements that can mess with his hormones. This change alone has freed up several hours of my nights and allowed me the opportunity to get more sleep myself! I started looking for more solutions - for our immune systems, gut health, emotions, how to make healthy + quick meals, and relieve the aches and pains that come with caregiving.
We address the cause of any issues rather than the symptoms - with many solutions in our home, readily at our fingertips. I’m on a mission to help other caregivers and families break free and empower themselves with the knowledge and resources I’ve worked so hard to get myself.
