    The Science of Happiness
    What Happens When Caregivers Dance

    Even just a few minutes of dancing can shift energy, release emotions, and remind us to care for ourselves while we care for others.Summary: Dance isn't just fun—it's scientifically shown to make us happier, ease stress, and strengthen social bonds. From swaying in the kitchen to joining a community class, movement helps us regulate our nervous systems and reconnect with joy. In this episode of The Science of Happiness, we explore what the science says about how dancing supports well-being for parents, caregivers, and families.How To Do This Practice:  Pick a Song You Love: Choose music that makes you want to move. Even if it's just a little sway. It could be something upbeat or a song from your childhood that feels comforting. Start Small: Give yourself permission to move for just five minutes. No pressure to “work out”—the goal is to shift your energy and lift your mood. Follow Your Body: Sway, step, shake, or spin. There's no right or wrong way. Let your body lead instead of worrying about looking a certain way. Play with Pausing: Try stopping mid-song for a “freeze” moment, then move again. Pausing helps build awareness, self-control, and a sense of play. Invite Connection: If you have kids, family, or friends around, pull them into the movement. Science shows that dancing together strengthens bonds and amplifies joy. Release and Reset: Notice how you feel after moving— lighter, calmer, maybe more grounded. Let dance be a way to release tension and return to your day with more energy.

    This week, we're discussing worksite/group LTC plans, which have evolved a lot since group plans started being offered through employers. Jason Dutra with shares how they are committed to helping the 50+ million family caregivers in the U.S. today. He shares how today's worksite offerings differ from those offered in previous decades, including guaranteed premiums that never change.  This was a big concern with past plans and has now been resolved. We discuss how worksite plans help both employers and employees prepare for tomorrow's industry and family needs. We also discuss why someone can benefit from having both a worksite and an individual plan. Listen and schedule some time with me   to plan for yourself. Schedule a 15 minute meeting to see if a worksite solution can bring value to your company. View both current and projected future costs of care where you live and be sure to use a 5% cost of living/inflation factor as that's what we've witnessed over the last three decades.

    I sat down with Dr. Barry Jacobs—a clinical psychologist, family therapist, and fellow caregiver whose story began when his father was diagnosed with brain cancer. Out of that crucible, he has spent nearly four decades helping families navigate the emotional and practical challenges of caregiving. We talked about the unspoken grief many caregivers carry, why sadness is not a weakness but a source of strength, and how family conflict often masks deeper sorrow. Dr. Jacobs shared powerful metaphors—the “half loaf” of life after disability, the cards we're dealt and how we play them—and offered wisdom drawn from both his clinical practice and his own scars. Together, we explored what it means to “respect the trauma,” why caregivers must give themselves permission for joy, and how purpose can grow even out of devastating loss. Along the way, I shared Gracie's clarity after her 98th surgery—her determination to live, sing, see her grandchildren, and return to Africa to serve other amputees. Dr. Jacobs also introduced his newest work, The Caregiver Answer Book (AARP/Guilford Press), which offers nearly 150 concise responses to the questions caregivers most often ask. It's a practical, compassionate resource that belongs in every caregiver's hands. As Dr. Jacobs reminded us: “There are no perfect caregivers—only good enough caregivers.” That's encouragement every one of us needs.

    The Care Advocates is brought to you by the All Home Care Matters Media team and focuses on providing family caregivers and their loved ones with support, resources, and discussion on the issues facing them in the matrix of long-term care.   The Care Advocates is hosted by Lance A. Slatton & Dr. George Ackerman, also known as Sharon's son George.   The Care Advocates are honored to welcome the sisters from "Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver" J.J. Elliott Hill & Natalie Elliott Handy as guests to the show.   About J.J. Elliott Hill, MBA:   J.J. is a finance executive turned entrepreneur, caregiver advocate, and podcast co-host. With over 17 years in commercial banking, she advised small to mid-sized businesses on strategic growth, asset management, and navigating regulatory and merger transitions. But in 2013, a corporate downsizing shifted her trajectory—leading her to co-found three startups spanning retail, manufacturing, and real estate.   In 2023, J.J. co-founded the Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver podcast to raise awareness for the 53 million Americans caring for loved ones—just like she has done since 2019 for her mother, a 22-year Parkinson's patient. What began as a personal story has grown into a global caregiving platform, with over 300,000 monthly downloads and listeners in 54 countries. Today, Confessions is more than a podcast—it's a movement, offering training, keynote speaking, and advocacy that centers and elevates the caregiver voice.   In 2024, J.J. brought that same strategic mindset to the caregiving space as co-founder and CFO of CareForward, a public benefit company dedicated to supporting caregivers and the communities around them through technology-driven solutions and volunteer networks.   She holds a B.A. in Economics from Hollins College and an MBA in Executive Management from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. J.J. is a Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) and is completing her certification as a Caregiving Consultant, Educator, and Facilitator through The Caregiving Years Academy.   About Natalie Elliott Handy, MSW:   Natalie is a seasoned healthcare executive with over 25 years of experience in health and human services. She is the CEO of CareForward, a technology-driven platform that connects individuals in crisis with volunteers and partner organizations to meet urgent, short-term needs and improve long-term outcomes. Natalie is also the CEO of Handy Innovative Solutions, a consulting firm focused on trauma-informed, evidence-based strategies for child welfare and behavioral health systems, specializing in transitioning high-acuity youth from congregate care into stable, family-based placements.   Natalie co-hosts the global podcast Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver with her sister, JJ Elliott-Hill. The show, ranked in the top 5% of podcasts globally and streamed in over 54 countries with 300K+ monthly downloads and streams, brings authenticity, humor, and hope to caregiving conversations. Through storytelling, education, and advocacy, the podcast provides a supportive space for caregivers worldwide.   A passionate advocate, Natalie has served in leadership roles across mental health, foster care, and healthcare systems, including CEO of multiple psychiatric treatment facilities and VP of Government Affairs at Health Connect America. She speaks nationally on caregiving, crisis response, and community solutions.   Learn more about the Self-Care at Sea Cruise: Official Website: https://www.funseas.com/self-care

    What if you could communicate telepathically with someone living with advanced Alzheimer's? Dan Goerke discovered this extraordinary connection with his wife Denise after conventional conversation became impossible. In this episode, Dan reveals how their mental bond transformed his caregiving approach and ultimately led him to become a powerful advocate for Alzheimer's research.Perhaps most touching is Dan's compassionate philosophy: "Let her do it." When Denise would wander the neighborhood with scissors, pruning neighbors' flowers without permission, Dan instructed caregivers not to stop her. Rather than imposing restrictions, he recognized these creative moments brought her rare joy in a disease that progressively steals happiness. This perspective offers a powerful lesson for all caregivers—sometimes the greatest compassion lies in allowing freedom rather than control.From following behind his wife's car to detect unsafe driving patterns to navigating bathroom challenges with humor and patience, Dan's honest account of caregiving's frustrations and unexpected gifts resonates deeply. His journey from anger to advocacy demonstrates how channeling emotion into action can create meaningful change not just for one family, but for millions affected by Alzheimer's.Ready to transform your own caregiving approach or join the fight against Alzheimer's?

    Caregiving often hides what I call smoldering rage—resentment that simmers quietly until a fresh crisis ignites it like a wildfire. In this week's Hope for the Caregiver radio show, I open with a monologue about those hidden embers, drawing from Montana's fire season to show how caregivers can confront resentment and apply God's grace before it consumes us. The program closes with a hymn every caregiver needs: “Be Still, My Soul.” Gracie's a cappella performance of this timeless hymn reminds us that God's faithfulness steadies us when caregiving feels unbearable and that the daily grind of service is, in fact, holy work. This episode also features excerpts from my conversation with author and fellow caregiver Jess Ronne, whose story of loss, resilience, and faith offers a powerful reminder that we're not alone in this journey.

    Betsy Wurzel's guest today is Dr. Marc Sapir, author of I'll Fly Away: Stories of Disabled Elders. In this inspiring interview, Dr. Sapir shares why he gave his book the title I'll Fly Away, drawn from the 1929 song about freedom. He explains how the theme of freedom connects deeply with the lives of elderly and disabled individuals—social beings who deserve respect, autonomy, and dignity.During their conversation, Betsy and Dr. Sapir explored the PACE model program for elderly and disabled individuals, which recognizes them as cultural beings who should be supported in living meaningful lives. They discussed how music plays a vital role in bringing joy, connection, and healing, and why being socially active is essential for well-being.Another important topic they covered was end-of-life care. Dr. Sapir stressed how crucial it is to make your wishes known through a medical directive, ensuring that family or friends honor those decisions—even if they might disagree. He emphasized that, for many people, quality of life matters more than quantity.Dr. Sapir also shared stories of individuals featured in I'll Fly Away: Stories of Disabled Elders, reflecting on the lessons he has learned from his experiences. He spoke about how aging often brings physical and mental challenges, but reminded us that we must always treat the elderly with respect and dignity.The interview also touched on how healthcare systems can better support the aging population by recognizing their unique needs and providing programs that nurture independence and self-worth. About Dr. Marc SapirDr. Marc Sapir is a retired primary care, geriatric, and public health physician. He is also an essayist, playwright, fiction writer, poet, musician, and political activist. Dr. Sapir was the first Medical Director of the Center for Elders' Independence, serving disabled elders for nine years.
