About this listen
In this episode, Isabel invites listeners to pause, reflect, and imagine their future as caregivers—or as care receivers. Drawing from her experience leading her first Planning Lab for Caregivers and Retirees, she shares how planning for care can be just as meaningful and intentional as planning a trip, a new home, or retirement dreams.
Through a guided journaling and reflection exercise, Isabel encourages listeners to:
- Explore their expectations and emotions around caregiving.
- Identify the mix of feelings that come with this life stage—honor, sadness, guilt, joy, or overwhelm.
- Recognize which emotions they may want to shift, and understand why those emotions are present.
- Practice self-kindness and curiosity instead of judgment.
She emphasizes that caregiving is not just about challenges—it can be a season of connection, self-discovery, and love. By reframing emotions and making small changes today, we can create a more compassionate, intentional future for ourselves and those we care for.
Isabel closes by reminding listeners that they deserve love, care, joy, and abundance—and that even small mindset shifts can transform the caregiving journey.
