Speak Your Truth with Allison Breininger – Caregiver Spotlight
- Speak Your Truth with Allison Breininger - Caregiver Spotlight Elizabeth Miller 56:53
Allison Breininger has an MA in Education and spent twenty years in the realm of education. At 31, she became a caregiver for her husband, Sean, when he was diagnosed with the rare genetic disease Fanconi Anemia. She has been by his side through countless treatments and experienced firsthand that caregivers are in what she calls ‘the negative space’: vital yet overlooked and unsupported.
In this episode, Allison shares why caregivers are part of the story and need to be recognized, why the oxygen mask analogy falls short, what tried and true tools help her in her Caregiving life, and why ‘brightsiding’ is detrimental for care advocacy and caregiver wellness.
