230. How To Reframe Dementia Caregiving From Frustration To Fun

When caring for a loved one with dementia, our instinct is often to correct, guide, or keep them on track. But what if the best way to connect wasn’t about following the rules—but breaking them?

In Episode 230, we explore how letting go of structure and embracing playfulness can create meaningful moments of joy, connection, and peace in dementia caregiving.

 

Dementia caregiving isn’t about following the rules—it’s about creating meaningful connections. When you let go of expectations and focus on joy, laughter, and presence, caregiving becomes less stressful and more fulfilling.

Forget the rules, embrace the moment, and cherish the time you have with your loved one. Those small moments of joy will become the memories you hold onto forever.
