About this Event
Caring for someone you love doesn’t stop during the holidays. Your own needs shouldn’t disappear, either.
The holiday season can bring meaningful moments—but when you’re a family caregiver, it can also bring extra responsibilities, changing routines, and expectations that feel difficult to meet.
Maybe familiar traditions no longer fit your loved one’s needs. Maybe you’re wondering how to say “no” without disappointing someone. Or maybe you’d simply like to feel less stretched and more present this year.
Join us at ActivAge Sarasota for Surviving the Holidays with Resilience, a supportive workshop focused on helping caregivers navigate the season with more peace and purpose.
What you’ll learn
Barbara Ingram-Rice will share guidance to help you:
- Protect your energy during the holidays. Make room for your own needs alongside the care you provide.
- Say “no” with grace and confidence. Set boundaries around commitments and expectations.
- Create new, meaningful traditions. Explore ways to celebrate that fit your life today and bring moments of peace and joy.
This is not about adding more to your holiday to-do list. It’s about finding a way through the season that feels more manageable and meaningful for you and your loved one.
