Happy Healthy Caregiver Helping overwhelmed family caregivers infuse self-care into their daily lives. Certified Caregiving Need help and support integrating caregiving with your life?

Through personal experience caring for my aging parents and brother with developmental disability, I have had to learn how to juggle work, raising children, caring for others, and my own health and happiness. I help overwhelmed family caregivers create infuse self-care into their daily lives to avoid (or recover from) caregiver burnout. See also our public Self-Care Strategies for Caregivers FB group page where we have daily themes of tips!

Trap Gambino reflects on what, surprisingly, helped him during caregiving to get out of the hole he found himself in.

Travis Long, known to most as Trap Gambino, is a husband, father, entrepreneur, media personality, and motivational speaker whose caregiving journey is as powerful as it is personal.

In 2022, Trap and his wife Ashlee’s lives were turned completely upside down when they lost their three-year-old daughter to an aggressive cancer and, just weeks later, received a devastating diagnosis for Ashlee that resulted in the termination of her pregnancy. Three life-changing griefs in an extraordinarily short period of time are inconceivable.

In this episode, we talk about how Trap has channeled his anger into fuel, using it to get laser-focused on what matters most in his life: his health, his family, and the growth of his MFL business and Katana Rose Foundation. We talk about the importance of truly understanding your loved one's needs, why he believes in letting himself cry when he needs to, and how vulnerability and strength are not opposites; they are partners.

Trap also shares how he and his wife find ways to decompress and reconnect as a family, including one of their favorite simple rituals of saving fun TikToks and watching them together on the big screen. And as a proud Las Vegas resident, he gives us an insider's guide to his hometown, from the unexpected gems of Fremont Street and activities to do with the kids to a full day soaking in the breathtaking Red Rock Mountains.

As caregivers, we often push aside our emotions to stay strong for everyone else. But healing starts with acknowledging what we feel, whether that’s grief, frustration, joy, or exhaustion.

✨ It's not a weakness to feel. It’s the pathway to healing.

β€œI think starting and founding Spoonful of Comfort was my self-care. It gave me a purpose so I didn't go down this dark hole. It gave me a purpose and a mission and something outside of me to get up, focus on and do every day.”

Hello! πŸ‘‹ If you're new here, I'm so glad you found your way to me. I thought I'd take a minute to introduce myself.

I'm Elizabeth, founder of Happy Healthy Caregiver since 2015 and a resident of Marietta, GA. Prioritizing my health & happiness isn't something I just talk about, I had to learn to do so the hard way by clawing my way back from caregiver burnout. I try to live each day with intention and find ways to make my caregiving life sustainable. Taking care of myself while caring for others matters, and I hope to inspire you to do the same. Here are a few things you may not know about me:

β˜• I'm obsessed with finding sneaky ways to get more protein in my day, like making a protein iced coffee! Happy to share the recipe.

πŸŽ™οΈ I host the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, because caregivers deserve a voice & a community.

πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§ I started as a sandwich generation caregiver, & now I'm a sibling caregiver for my brother Tom, who lives an hour away

πŸ“‹ I'm a Certified Caregiving Consultant & Certified Senior Advisor

🎀 One main way I make a living is by speaking to companies, organizations, & associations about caregiver support & self-care

🐾 We have two dogs, Shadow, a 15-year-old Shih Tzu who has become a care recipient himself πŸ˜„, & Sunny, a Mini Golden Doodle who is basically a professional cuddler

🌊 My happy place is Hubbard Lake, Michigan, & anywhere my family is

πŸ‘€ When I'm not caregiving or working, you'll find me playing Mahjong, doing needlepoint, baking sourdough, hunting for treasures at estate sales, or lost in a good book

πŸ“Ί Currently streaming Lioness and Ted Lasso with my husband Jason, & Widow's Bay is my show πŸ˜„

🍹 Speaking of Jason, he's also an entrepreneur and co-founder of Good Days Classic Cocktails ; we are grinding entrepreneurs in our mid-50s!

🌻 I believe self-care isn't selfish β€” it's survival

πŸ’› I started Happy Healthy Caregiver because I was tired of being an invisible and drowning caregiver, & wish a community of support and resources like this existed

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here. πŸ’› Drop a πŸ‘‹ in the comments and share one thing about YOU! πŸ‘‡
