This week I've been on the other side of the palliative care coin with a family member and my family doggie.

I noticed five themes that applied in both places and I share them this week.

What did I miss? What would you add?

P.S.
The Conscious Coping program is starting in late July. If you have an ill loved one and you'd like more clarity about how to deal with it all, communication skills to handle the tough conversations, calm in a terribly stressful time and support for your self-care, this is for you. The group will be small so everyone can have personal attention. More info is here: https://trainings.integrativepalliative.com/ConsciousCoping
If this speaks to you, sign up today.

If you have a loved one with serious illness and you're feeling depleted, exhausted and overwhelmed, this program is for you. You will become a confident advocate for your loved one and fill up your own "cup" so that you can show up with empathy and also enjoy your life more. You deserve it.

Managing uncertainty and overwhelm is the key to navigating the experience of loving someone who is ill, and this is available through IPI's Conscious Coping program.

You'll get practical tools to support your loved one and yourself, important insights, skills to talk about tough topics and a supportive community, so you don't need to do this alone. 1:1 coaching is also available.
