November events recognize the caregiver in all of us

In November 2025, we may feel the desire to slow down as we settle into the fall season. For caregivers, there is no pause or slow down. It’s an everyday ongoing responsibility that can be both taxing and rewarding. We encourage you to pause to consider that we are all caregivers.   The first person we care for is ourselves. And if we do a poor job at self-care, then it limits our effectiveness when it comes to caring for others including our children and our elderly loved ones.
