If you listen to this podcast, there's a strong chance that you receive care - from a friend, a loved one, or from within your community. You might also be in the position I was in a few years back, caring for elderly relatives, young children, and myself as a person with a chronic illness!

My guest today is Elizabeth Miller, a family caregiver, caregiver advocate, speaker, author, podcast host, and Certified Caregiving Consultant. Her personal experiences of caring for aging parents with chronic and terminal illnesses and for a sibling with developmental disabilities inspired her to create Happy Healthy Caregiver in 2015.

Elizabeth's aim is to make caregiving sustainable and prevent burnout by encouraging intentional self-care.

Like I said, you might be a caregiver or the one receiving care. Regardless, there are some great tips in our conversation for looking after yourself. And please remember that self-care is not selfish!

Topics covered in this episode include:

The story of Elizabeth's history with caregiving and what her hardest challenges were
How sharing her story through a blog enabled Elizabeth to help others in the same situation
Elizabeth's advice for caregivers and the things which helped her to look after herself
Changes that Elizabeth would like to see in the healthcare system
The services and support that Elizabeth provides through Happy Healthy Caregiver
