I’m hosting a podcast! The first 2 episodes of Who Cares are out 🎙️ This is an eight-part podcast series by Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence and Snack Labs that showcases unseen realities of #caregivers and care providers across Canada (but very familiar to some of us). . Please take a listen ❤️

Incredible article by Louise Kinross interviewing another awesome sibling, TerrenceHo.eth. Nodding my head as I read along - what a relatable and meaningful article for sibling caregivers ❤️

Who cares? Best part of my weekend was listening to the first 2 episodes of this podcast on caregiving - with caregivers and care providers together, hosted by Melissa Ngo, MDes , sister, advocate, & podcaster! - Loved the linchpin analogy & and all of the interviews - links below

That's because professionals have advised parents to assure sibs that this won't be their role. That was the message I always received in workshops.
