I have appreciated this podcast so much, especially since it is biblically based. Her wisdom on how to handle a loved one with dementia has really helped change my attitude and also learn how to handle situations

Listened to this thinking about my own home and husbands dementia and about my whirling thoughts of ‘where from here?’. Very thorough, practical, motivational. I was encouraged that some of my current thinking was right on target, gave me direction and instruction in other areas of concern. I never thought that all these decisions I’ll be having to make were causing me to feel overwhelmed and so tired! Super Lizette. Thank you Pat
Lizette is amazing!

With both my parents being diagnosed with dementia, our family knew we needed help to understand it, how to help ourselves and our parents navigate through the unknown “adventures” ahead. We found Lizette and her vast expertise, resources and calm, caring nature made it a no brainer to hire her as our coach. We are now 6+ months into her coaching and I’ve learned so much. Not only about dementia, but the stages my parents are in now, what’s coming up next, what will be in the future. How to help them and ourselves through this, prioritizing ourselves while helping them. Resources to help us create a better, healthier living environment for their minds. How best to work the healthcare system to get what our parents need when they need it. How to have difficult conversations, what questions need to be asked and things need to be put into place now, while their minds are in a place to tell us what they want done as the decline progresses. Lizette is by our side through all the ups and downs. Her weekly group coaching is invaluable as we learn at a deeper level from listening to her coach others in the group as well as ourselves. While I love this podcast (thank you Lizette for doing this) her coaching will make the biggest difference if you have a loved one with dementia. She is truly an expert, cares about you and is the lifeline you need to navigate the rough waters ahead in your and your loved ones dementia journey. ❤️
Wow! This was timely
