When was the last time you sat down and actually ate? Not the crust of your loved one's toast, not a cold cup of coffee, but a real meal. In honor of National Nutrition Month, we are flipping the script on "senior nutrition." We often focus entirely on what the person with dementia is or isn't eating, but today, Host Lin White turns the lens on you—the caregiver. In this raw and honest episode, Lin explores why skipping meals isn't a sign of dedication, but a fast track to burnout, depletion, and emotional fragility. If you’ve been feeling short-tempered, exhausted, or like you’re failing, this episode will help you see that what you actually need is nourishment.
