My caregiving role started over ten years ago. When I signed on for this role I had no idea the emotional toll it was going to take on me.

I was working full time, married and had two kids still at home. Many days I wandered around in disbelief and on autopilot. No one was getting the best of me and I surely was not taking care of myself.

I was constantly asking my friends and colleagues about how to deal with what I sarcastically called “the behavior of the week”. I got some great ideas and some not so great ideas. Some things worked, other things did not.

I was constantly putting out fires! It was A LOT!

Once my parents passed and I was able to get a little distance from that grief I began sharing everything I learned with clients and friends.

I used my experience and training to create the One-Eighty products and programs so other adult children like you can prepare and be proactive with your own caretaking challenges.
