Caregivers – Whether You Wanted To Be One or Not

Resistance to Resilience Interview Series from Your Shift Matters

A word Trailor if you will, here are some powerful quotes and exurbs from my next guest’s chapters.

“I made the choice of not listening to the warning signs my body was screaming at me because I didn’t know what they were and because I was just too busy”

“I stepped out in faith, scared to death of what my colleagues were going to think, scarred to fail. But the need was far bigger than my fear”

“I knew intimately what it was like to live with PTSD and wanted to help others learn about what it was The warning signs , and to know they were not alone”

“ I often say to colleagues it’s not a matter of IF Something is going to happen but rather when WHEN “

“I sometimes jokingly describe the house I grew up in as a cross between a church and a furniture store – everything EXACTLY in its place”

“This was a time when our family was in dire need of love, support and understanding from each other. Unfortunately, this was easier said than done”

“On Sept 11 2001 our nation suffered a great tragedy. Our family suffered a personal loss of our own…”

“The doctor asked her who I was… “I don’t know”
