  • Wonderful podcast for caregivers

    Lizette provides a much needed service for caregivers. My mother suffered from dementia and I wished I would have known a resource like this was available to me while I was taking care of her. I have been able to talk to Lizette a few times and she is as knowledgeable and warm on a call as she is on this podcast. I can’t wait to listen to her past episodes and share them with the caregivers I know.

  • So Grateful

    I am so grateful for this ministry God has given Lizette. The podcast is so helpful and encouraging to hear godly wisdom and to receive practical help. It’s often difficult to get the time to search out solid advice but hear I can listen anytime. Even when the topic may not address things we are going through at the moment I know that there will be a time I need it.

    Thank you Lizette and thank you Lord!

  • SO genuine & helpful!

    Lizette has such a passion for helping those who feel as though they’re stumbling their way through memory disorders & all that comes with them. She provides understanding, support, and most importantly, guidance. She addresses topics that most others are afraid to talk about. She talks about the hard stuff, and wants to help you through the specific situations that so often get left out. Everyone walking through a memory care journey needs a Lizette!

Q: Welcome Doris. So we're going to start today and I'm going to ask you the question that I'm asking everybody, which is, right now, what is the hardest for you?
