EP 97 :: How to Process Caregiver Guilt :: Jennifer Richey
Jennifer has over 10 years of experience caring for her parents and grandfather. She launched her own business, Brave Caregiving, in 2019, where she helps caregivers who are struggling and professionally. She is a certified life coach, as well as a Certified Caregiving Consultant, Educator, and Support Group Facilitator.
“There is so much to do. Appointments to coordinate. Supplies and equipment to order. Medications to track. People to keep an eye on. Forms to fill out. Asking for help can feel like a chore of its own. How can any one person possibly manage it all without some amount of resentment and guilt?” Jennifer says.
“You constantly feel like you are living your life waiting for the other shoe to drop. There’s so much waiting, uncertainty, and guilt,” she explains. “I know when I was taking care of my parents, I felt very trapped, like you can’t leave, or take a vacation.”
