The agent's powers are effective after the principal becomes incapacitated or cannot make decisions on their own.) https://eforms.com/power-of-attorney/medical/  Additional information to assist you in being an Advocate or Care Provider is to recognize your strengths and weaknesses.  Your individual is counting on you to help make good decisions, seek assistance through their medical team, and do not be afraid to connect with Hospice if no other reason that to provide you with peace of mind.  It is also important to have financial arrangements discussed before anyone gets ill or has an accident - establishing a Durable Power of Attorney for Financials is needed - do not hesitate to start asking questions and plan ahead.  ***Our children at the age of 18 are technically emancipated they too should have all this paperwork filled out.  Your young adult child may be placed in the hands of the Court if they were to become ill or injured.  As a parent unless specified in the documents we discuss is completed, you will have no say into their care.   https://www.lawdepot.com/contracts/power-of-attorney-form  The 2020 update reveals an increase in the number of family caregivers in the United States of 9.5 million from 2015 to 2020.   Please reach out to Melinda on Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/melindasmithhearmojo  newclevelandradio@gmail.com

Today's podcast explores a different approach that can stop the additive bias and fix the underlying root causes of our challenges.   https://www.facebook.com/groups/IntentionalityGurus  https://theintentionalitygurus.com/ Listen on your favorite streaming platform: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/candace-pollock-the-intentionality-gurus/id1469584790?uo=4 iHeart:  https://iheart.com/podcast/45922022  newclevelandradio@gmail.com

There is no right way or wrong way, it is an individual path, and it is important that we understand that we all will travel this path sometime in our lifetime, it is not avoidable.

He reads insatiably, takes courses when the topic seems interesting enough, and is always willing to share his findings with this family. He has studied everything from ancient Vedic languages to the Higgs Boson in Modern Physics. At one point he took a course entitled Existential Meta psychiatry. It was a scientific method of teaching and healing based on the understanding that each of us is made in the image and likeness of God, as well as dealing with what Reality really is. I, myself, was fortunate enough to sit in on a few sessions. One of the lessons is to this day one of my favorite sayings. “Truth without compassion is cruelty”. (See Theory#15). Another gem I got from these teachings was the concept of striving to be a Beneficial Presence. Not to be confused with a beneficent person, who is one who does things outright to help others, a beneficial presence is someone who, just by being there, makes their surroundings better. Someone who approaches all situations peacefully and calmly and lives with a sense of gratitude. It kinda reminds me of the Desiderata, that poem/life lesson that starts out, “Go placidly among the noise and the haste and remember what peace there may be in silence”. I think we’ve all known people like that at one time or another. People that can walk into a hectic situation and somehow things seem to fall into place. There is something about the concept of ‘good things happen when you’re around’ that really appeals to me. In Quantum Physics, the physics of the very, very small, scientists hope that they will discover how everything in the universe is connected to everything else through dimensions that our senses cannot comprehend. A Beneficial Presence could somehow work at this level. But not everyone buys into this idea. Some people have a hard time seeing how one thing can influence another without direct involvement. But even in our reality, we do see examples of this, oddly enough, in hockey. The NHL keeps track of a stat called the Plus/Minus. Every time a goal is scored by your team when you’re on the ice you a +1 and every time a goal is scored by the other team when you’re on the ice you get -1. At the end of the game these are all added up and you are given an overall positive or negative number. A +3, for example, means that your team scored 3 more goals than the other team when you were out there, whether you yourself scored a goal or had an assist or not. To me, that’s a Beneficial Presence. So, Quantum Physics, Existential Meta psychiatry, hockey…All different ways of referencing just being a good person. Being a team player. I remember in high school, in one class the teacher somehow got on the subject of love, and he asked us all what we thought love was. “Love is a great feeling”, “Love is intense happiness”. These were some of the responses. Not sure why but I raised my hand and said, “I think love is being more concerned with another person’s ‘feeling great’ and ‘intense happiness’ than your own”. In short, be nice. Everybody will benefit from it. Or as Bill and Ted say, “Be excellent to each other”!

Me too. I’ve spent the better part of my professional life exploring how we live in an era of climate crisis. I can speak to the emotional and practical aspects of navigating climate concerns while raising kids. Our kids will inherit a world shaped by the climate crisis, but as parents we have the power to prepare them. I spent four years, researching and reporting how, and put it all into my book PARENTING IN A CLIMATE CRISIS: A Handbook for Turning Fear Into Action (Workman, 2/18/25). I spoke with dozens of climate scientists, psychologists, parents and educators, distilling their wisdom into a concise, accessible guide for busy parents. This is not about doom and gloom, it's about acceptance and hope. If the world reaches net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, most climate experts agree that the global temperature will rise by at least 1.5 degrees celsius but fall back by 2100. If every country fulfills its existing climate obligations, the world warms by an average of 2.7 degrees C by 2100, there is a significant drop in global food production, and there are more extreme weather events.So things are going to get weird over the next 80 years. And addressing climate change requires collective action – it’s not up to already frazzled parents!! But that doesn’t mean we’re helpless. There is much we can do to make it more or less likely that they will be able to find joy on this planet and care for it in the best way possible. Among the topics I can discuss: • How the concern about the planet impacted my own decision to become a mom • Working with big feelings about climate change–our kids’ and our own • How empowering our children to contribute in age-appropriate ways helps both the movement and our children's mental health • Specific examples of strategies that parents, educators, and scientists across the country are using in their own homes to raise climate-resilient kids• How to talk about the climate crisis with kids and family and friends, and why talking about the climate crisis is one of the most meaningful actions individuals can take.https://breeshirvell.com/If you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with Karenkh.yesican1@gmail.com440 526 1530

Every individual will experience grief in their lifetime, and it’s important to recognize that there is no “right” or “wrong” way to process loss—whether it stems from the passing of a loved one, a divorce, estrangement, the loss of a treasured item, a job, or one’s health. Grief has the power to shape daily life, relationships, and the ability to move forward. However, as we explore GRIEF on this podcast, we stand by the belief that support is available to help you navigate its challenges. You are not alone.Our panel is made up of dedicated Grief Coaches, with the exception of myself—I am a Life Coach. Alison, Christina, and Kristy are all certified Grief Coaches, bringing their expertise and compassion to support you.Although Alison is not with us today, she remains available to guide you through your journey. Today, she’s taking a well-deserved self-care day—something we wholeheartedly encourage. As many of you know, Alison is the primary caregiver for her incredible mother-in-law, Joy, who is 102 years young.Last month, Joy experienced a fall that could have been life-altering, but fortunately, she avoided serious injury. Still, the weight of Alison’s caregiving responsibilities has deepened, and we want to send her our love and support.Let’s take a moment to acknowledge her dedication and uplift her, in spirit as she continues this journey with Joy.Today, Christina and Kristy and I will be talking about how Grief Work affects us. We are not robots instilled with artificial intelligence to assist you, as humans we too have similar experiences and even though our training has provided us with tools, sometimes we may lack the energy to use them. (At least I will say that is true for me.)So let me open up today’s conversation and ask about three major components:• Active Listening – Who wants to explain this as it is an art?• Empathy/not sympathy – What happens if you become too sympathetic?• Guidance – Can you share the concept of journaling and how it is used for healing?How real are the stages of Grief? – Does everyone go through them• Denial• Anger• Bargaining• Depression• AcceptanceWorking with a grief coach can be incredibly beneficial for those navigating loss. Unlike traditional therapy, grief coaching is future-focused and solution-oriented, helping individuals process their emotions while developing coping strategies to move forward.Grief Coaching similar to Life Coach provides you with the support, guidance, validation and techniques to move forward if you choose to.Meet the GRIEF BeLIEF Podcast Panel:Alison Pena - https://grief.beehiiv.com/www.badwidow.comalison@badwidow.comChristina Hatten - https://www.facebook.com/christina.hatten.9Kristy Anderson - www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/kristy-andersonandersonr1227@sbcglobal.netIf you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with Karenkh.yesican1@gmail.com440 526 1530

I used to call them when I was a paralegal and basically give a list of the issues involved with the person in mind and they would give me a list of the contacts of organizations that handle the various needs for various constituent groups). How to Say it to Seniors by David Solie. It outlines researched ways to communicate with seniors or anyone who needs to be "encouraged" to take or stop actions such as giving up driving, don't go down the basement stairs to do the laundry, etc. I have used the techniques in my practice and it works. Compassionate Friends is a nationwide mutual self-help bereavement organization offering friendship, understanding, and hope to bereaved families that have experienced the death of a child at any age from any cause. https://www.aginglifecare.org, used to be called the Geriatric Caregiver Assoc but I think Boomer didn't like "geriatric" references. They can deal with people with disabilities associated with various diseases such as M.S., etc. I often recommend the family get an ALC person to help them navigate a number of things--especially when the family lives out of town and needs someone to take the elder or disabled person to the doctor, etc. The ALC worker doesn't provide the care--they are like the eyes and ears the family would normally be if they could do so--even when the family is in town. There is a Veteran Improved Pension (of which Aid & Attendance is a part) benefit that can provide tax-free income that helps a veteran and/or the vet's surviving spouse with out of pocket unreimbursed medical expenses afford in-home care. This is NOT a service connected benefit nor is it treatment at the VA health centers. There are income and asset limits that are actually more generous than they used to be and if people know to plan ahead for it, obtain these funds that allow them to remain in their own home longer and afford more other options if that is no longer possible.
