When Caregiving Ends, How to Find Purpose Again– Caregiver Smile Summit
Pam Ramsden and Rimas Jasin are our guests on the Caregiver Smile Summit.
At some point, your caregiving responsibilities will end. Many caregivers find themselves asking: what’s next for me? Once you are no longer caring for a loved one, how will you spend your time and energy in other meaningful ways? Based on the popular Explore Your Futureworkshop series, you can use these reflections to find purpose and meaning again by asking. In this interview we will explore these reflections – How did I get here? Who am I now?What do I want?How do I create an engaged life now? You will learn that there is “life” after caregiving; why it’s important to maintain purpose; re-discover your talents, values, passions, strengths and aspirations; and tap into books and resources available to facilitate this journey.
