In this podcast, I dive into the uncomfortable and difficult topic of recognizing when we're in victim mentality during our caregiving journey and how to overcome it.
Being a caregiver often brings drastic life changes, whether it’s leaving work to provide full-time care or adjusting social activities. It’s natural to grieve these losses, but it’s also easy to fall into resentment and feel trapped.
Feeling like a victim comes from focusing on what we can’t control, but we can shift our perspective to focus on our choices and regain a sense of empowerment. I share my own experience of feeling stuck in my job during my husband’s cancer battle and how I reclaimed control by recognizing my choices.
The key is identifying where you feel powerless, acknowledging your emotions, and making deliberate choices. By re-deciding and committing to our choices, we transform feelings of powerlessness into empowerment, opening up new possibilities and growth.
