Summary
Lynn Abaté-Johnson understands the typhoon of emotions and responsibilities that come with caring for a loved one. For over six years, Lynn was the primary caregiver for her mother. Lynn says she discovered how to blossom through (and after) caregiving rather than let it drown her. Now she helps other family caregivers by giving them the emotional and logistical support they need.
In this episode, Lynn and I chat about grief relief, matriarchy expectations, unexpected respite, and online journals to help streamline communication surrounding a health journey.
