In this heartfelt episode of Life in the A-Zone, Peggy welcomes back artist and journal designer Jackie Begue to reflect on a meaningful milestone: being invited to speak at the very first meeting of a new caregiver support group that has chosen to use the Pink Cloud Moments™ Caregiving Journal as part of their weekly gatherings.

Peggy and Jackie share how this special evening came together—beginning with a thoughtful referral from author Karen McCord (Only Rainbows: The Carley McCord Story)—and how it led them into a room full of caregivers ready to connect, reflect, and support one another.

Together, they walk listeners through the night:

✨ How journaling helps caregivers process emotions, release stress, and gain clarity ✨ The journal prompts that opened the door to honest and healing conversations ✨ Caregivers sharing their challenges, gratitude, and small victories ✨ Peggy’s reading of what a true Pink Cloud Moment is ✨ The uplifting Angel Art Project designed to bring lightness and creativity after the emotional sharing ✨ The healing power of community, storytelling, and showing up for ourselves and one another

If you’re a caregiver—or love someone who is—this episode offers comfort, encouragement, and a gentle reminder that you are not alone.
