Description
Today, we are diving into a topic that we have never discussed before on the show: caretaking and its effect on marriage. Caretaking can involve caring for someone who is physically or mentally ill, be it a parent, relative, or spouse. Recently, we've been thrust into the caretaking role with our ailing parents, and we're navigating this new stage of life while sharing our experiences, how we deal with it individually and as a couple, and offering tips that have helped us manage this challenging phase.
You will receive:
Coping strategies for managing the stress of caretaking.
Encouragement & Acknowledgment for those who are experiencing caretaking in their marriage.
Instruction on how to discuss caretaking responsibilities with others.
