Empowered Caregivers is the podcast for spouses and partners caring for a loved one with a chronic condition. I’m Shelly, your host, and I began this journey in 2023 when I became the primary caregiver for my partner of 12 years. I know firsthand how complex and emotional this role can be, and I’m here to navigate it alongside you. Each episode offers expert advice, real stories, and practical strategies to help you balance caregiving with self-care, set healthy
boundaries, and maintain your relationship. We’ll talk about preventing burnout, managing medical systems, coping with the emotional toll, and finding moments of joy in the midst of it all.
We believe that all caregivers should have the knowledge, resources, and confidence to provide care effectively while maintaining their own well-being.
We believe Caregivers need to be well-trained, informed, and capable, have access to tools, education, and a strong network, and have the resources and time to prioritize their own health to avoid burnout. to have a voice in decisions and advocate for those they care for
You don’t have to do this alone. Join me as we redefine caregiving from a role of sacrifice and exhaustion to one of strength and sustainability
