In this episode, Wendy sits down with Deirdre Mercer, a woman who has spent her life caring for her parents, for her community, and now for caregivers everywhere. She shares how caregiving shaped her family, what she learned while raising teens and supporting aging parents at the same time, and why the true “secret” has nothing to do with tasks… and everything to do with unconditional love. 

Deirdre’s stories are real, heartfelt, and full of wisdom including a beautiful “three little words” moment from her mom that you won’t forget.

If you’re walking the caregiving journey, this conversation will make you feel a little more seen, a little more supported, and a lot less alone.
