Island Treasures Mini Podcast: No Regrets

A central theme of the full podcast episode with Rayna Neises, called "Rayna's Caregiving Wisdom: No Regrets and Cherished Memories" was how to have no regrets when caregiving.

After 26 years of caregiving during which Rayna completed her training to become a certified coach, Rayna shares what enabled her to be able to look back on her caregiving experience and say she has no regrets.  

We review how to define regrets, what it means to embrace a growth mindset, and we hear what questions we can ask ourselves to enhance our own wellbeing through a caregiving season.

Rayna talks about her book called "No Regrets: Hope for your Caregiving Season" and how the first 10 chapters address caregiving and the remaining 6 chapters are devoted to self-care and not losing oneself in the role of caregiver.

We hear how she creatively incorporated physical activity into the home environment for her dad who benefited from being able to participate in sports and how playing ping pong together led to creating memories.

A huge part of having no regrets when caregiving is making cherished memories with your loved ones, all while maintaining personal joy and creativity.
