Rachel Kerr Schneider: Finding Strength, Faith & Resilience Through Caregiving16 okt32 min

In this heartfelt conversation, Isabel welcomes Rachel Kerr Schneider, CEO, author, speaker, and entrepreneur, to talk about caregiving, resilience, faith, and the unexpected seasons of life.

Rachel shares her experience caring for her husband, John, after his ALS diagnosis and the lessons that journey taught her about anticipatory grief, asking for help, managing expectations, difficult family conversations, and caring for yourself while caring for someone you love.

They explore how clarity can strengthen families, why we sometimes expect others to help in ways they simply cannot, and how having honest conversations before a crisis can make caregiving more manageable.

Rachel also shares how her faith became a source of hope and resilience throughout some of the most difficult moments of her life.

A meaningful conversation for anyone caring for a loved one—or preparing their family for the seasons of life that none of us can predict.
