Balancing work, raising school-aged children, & supporting aging parents is really hard, but through this experience I have gained confidence & valuable skills. What skills have you learned as a working caregiver, and how do you apply them to excel in your job? #WorkLifeBalance

As high healthcare systems user, I've often been asked to share my story, but sometimes doing so did more harm to me than good. I need to remind myself that healthcare engagement should always be part of a win-win partnership.

It was amazing to participate in the conversation with @jenjohannesen. Her words are so articulate and impactful! Thank you @CdnCaregiving for making this possible!.
I spoke at the Canadian Caregiving Summit Nov 23, re "Caregiving and Work". Thru a bioethics lens I contemplate the cost of extreme caregiving, reflecting on lack of choice, financial dependency, and challenges to building a career. Transcript in link!
