Faith for Difficult Seasons: Caring for Others Without Losing Yourself
With Guests: Caregivers Karen Wright, who supported her husband through his cancer journey, learning to move from grief to gratitude and rediscover herself along the way and Arlene McPhee, caregiver to her 90-year-old mother, newly retired and starting her next chapter of life.
🔑 Highlights
- Why this matters: Most of us will face a season of caregiving—aging parents, a spouse’s illness, children or those with special needs. The question is: how do you show up for them without losing yourself?
- Real stories: Arlene and Karen share the breaking points that made them realize self-care isn’t selfish—it’s survival.
- Faith at the center: How prayer, rest, and trusting God helped them trade burnout for renewal.
- Breaking isolation: Why caregivers need community, and how to move past “superwoman syndrome.”
- Everyday renewal: From short walks to honest conversations, small acts of soul-care make a big difference.
- Practical wisdom: The “Be, Know, Do” principles—be present, know your limits, do give and receive grace—paired with the “Three F’s”—find yourself, fill your cup, find community.
💡 This episode offers hope and practical faith-filled wisdom for caregivers, but also encouragement for anyone stretched thin in life’s difficult seasons.
