Love Doesn't Pay The Bills

  • Inhaltsangabe

  • In Love Doesn't Pay the Bills, we explore the role of family caregivers in the modern United States through personal stories and interviews with leaders. Care work is vital to all other aspects of life, yet often under-resourced. Caregivers cannot house and feed ourselves or provide for our own medical needs based on our love for our family members alone: access to income matters. We also have the same needs as other workers for regular time off, to participate in social life and recreation, and for ongoing education and new opportunities over time. email Lisa: lisatschudi@twosquaredmediaproductions.com

  • Grab a Little Kindness for Ourselves: With Guest Susanne White
    Jan 16 2025
    Susanne cared for her mother and her father simultaneously. Out of that experience grew Susanne's service to other family caregivers: Caregiverwarrior.com and the book Self Care for Caregivers. She shares wisdom from her intense caregiving. She writes that self care is "Not All Bubble Baths and Yoga Pants" and at LDPTB we agree! Nontheless, treating oneself with kindness matters in the most high acuity care situations. Instead of self-care let's talk about self-advocacy, self-awareness and extending kindness to ourselves as we do our loved ones.

  • Replay of Fully Fund Care: with guest Calli Ross
    Dec 26 2024
    This episode was originally published on March 7, 2023. The Guest this week is Calli Ross who is a family caregiver and leader in the movement in Oregon to allow parents to be paid for providing extraordinary care to their minor children with disabilities. In the 2025 legislative session, Tensy's law, named for her son will be introduced to eliminate the lottery system that was created with SB91 which allows only about 10% of otherwise eliegible children to hire parent providers for pay. Tensy's law will allow all otherwise eligible children to pay parent providers for extraordinary care needs, the same as they would be able to pay any other direct support professional.
