In this episode, I challenge one of the most common phrases caregivers use: "I feel like I'm parenting my parent." I explain why that mindset creates guilt, resentment, and emotional exhaustion, and what's actually happening instead. You'll learn how to shift from feeling responsible for everything to stepping into a more sustainable role as an advocate. This reframe will help you protect your relationship with your parent while also protecting yourself.
