    UTIs in Dementia: What Looks Different and What to Do

    Urinary tract infections are one of the most common reasons people with dementia end up in the emergency room. In this video, I talk with Dr. Krieger, an emergency room physician, about why UTIs often look different in dementia and why sudden changes should not automatically be blamed on dementia progression. Dr. Krieger is also the creator of Uraguard, a product designed to help reduce bacterial exposure around the urethra for women with incontinence. We talk about where tools like this may fit into UTI prevention, along with other practical strategies caregivers can use. Learn more about Uraguard here: https://tinyurl.com/uraguard-careblazers-yt

    Why Dementia Looks So Different for Every Family (NIH 2025)

    Why does dementia look so different from one family to the next? This is a question I hear from caregivers all the time. Two people can have the same diagnosis and be the same age, yet their symptoms and caregiving challenges can look completely different. In this video, I break down what the 2025 NIH dementia progress report helps explain about why dementia does not follow one clear or predictable path. I cover what researchers are learning about dementia risk and protection, what is happening in the brain beyond memory loss, and what the science is showing about care planning and the caregiving experience. This is Part 2 of a two-part series based on the 2025 NIH dementia research update.  If you missed Part 1, you can find it here: https://youtu.be/Zzvdk5isef4 You can read the full NIH progress report here: https://www.nia.nih.gov/about/2025-nih-dementia-research-progress-report Get free weekly tools and tips in my newsletter, The Dementia Dose here: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-yt

    Are We Actually Making Progress in Dementia Research? (NIH 2025 Update) Part 1

    Are we actually making progress in dementia research, or does it just feel like nothing has changed?  In this video, I break down what the latest dementia research really shows based on the most recent data from the National Institutes of Health. We will talk about what is changing in detection, treatment, and prevention, and what this actually means for family caregivers making decisions right now. This is Part 1 of a two part series. In Part 2, I will go deeper into why dementia happens, who is most at risk, and what research is revealing about care quality and the caregiver experience.

    What Dementia Caregivers Need Most (It's Not What You Think)

    In this video, I share what dementia caregivers need most...and it's probably not what you've been told. This insight comes from the longest study ever conducted on human health and wellbeing: the Harvard Study on Adult Development, which followed people for more than 85 years. What researchers found challenges common assumptions about success, strength, and resilience. I break down what the science actually says, why this matters so much for caregivers in the middle of dementia care, and how connection and emotional safety play a powerful role in both caregiver health and dementia care outcomes.  Read about the study here: https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2017/04/over-nearly-80-years-harvard-study-has-been-showing-how-to-live-a-healthy-and-happy-life/ If you're feeling stretched thin, disconnected, or unsure how to keep going long term, this video will help you reframe what truly supports you, and your loved one, as the journey continues.

    Early Dementia Signs Caregivers Wish They Hadn't Ignored

    Many families look back and realize the early signs of dementia were there long before the diagnosis. In this video, I share real examples from caregivers who noticed subtle changes in hindsight, things that didn't seem like dementia at the time.  These early signs often go beyond memory loss and show up in daily routines, personality, decision-making, and behavior. If you're wondering whether what you're seeing in a loved one is normal aging or something more, this video will help you think differently about early warning signs and when it may be worth getting more information.  📩 Get weekly caregiver education and support in my free Dementia Dose newsletter: https://tinyurl.com/dementiadose-yt

    Why People With Dementia Remember Delusions But Not Reality

    Why can someone with dementia remember a delusion in vivid detail, yet forget what actually happened? In this video, I explain why dementia affects emotional memory differently from factual memory and why delusions can feel so real and unshakable. When you understand what's happening in the brain, it becomes easier to respond with comfort instead of argument.  If you've ever felt frustrated trying to correct or reason with a loved one who believes something that isn't true, this will help you understand why logic doesn't work and what does.

    Can Facial Changes Be An Early Sign of Dementia?

    In this video, I explore whether facial changes could be an early sign of dementia. Over the past few years, researchers have uncovered intriguing evidence showing that the brain impacts the face, and that subtle changes in facial expression and movement may be linked to dementia. This does not mean dementia can be diagnosed by looking at someone's face. But it does help explain why caregivers sometimes notice fewer smiles, less expression, or slower emotional reactions long before memory problems become obvious. I walk you through what the research is actually showing, what these facial changes may indicate, and just as importantly, what they do not mean. You'll also learn why a lack of visible expression doesn't mean your loved one isn't feeling, connecting, or enjoying what's happening. If you've noticed changes and wondered what they might mean, this video will help you make sense of what you're seeing.

    Is It Dementia… or Their Personality?

    Is this dementia… or is it just their personality? In this video, I explain why dementia can intensify longstanding personality traits, including patterns often seen in narcissistic, borderline, or histrionic personalities. You'll learn the brain science behind what's happening, why it feels so emotionally confusing, and how to respond in ways that protect both you and your loved one.
