NBC's Richard Lui on Caregiving for Father with Alzheimer's (ep. 358)

According to the National Alliance for Caregiving, 54 million Americans give care for an ill or disabled family member. Five years ago, NBC News journalist Richard Lui found himself in this group as his father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Today, Richard shares about preparing to leave his 30-year career to care for his father and how the prolonged illness taught him the power of selflessness. While caring for others has profound difficulties, Richard shows us how it can also offer an abundance of purpose + joy.   Did you enjoy this episode? You'll love hearing from my mom Susan O'Leary. After selflessly raising six children, I believe she's doing her finest work today as a caregiver for my father with Parkinson's. Listen to Susan O'Leary on ep. 000 now. *** Join our Live Inspired Together community, text PODCAST2021 to 314-207-5010. *** About our sponsor: Keeley Companies wholeheartedly believes that if you get the people right -the results will follow.
