Keynotes, conferences, podcasts and radio — on caregiving, resilience, and what it takes to keep showing up for the people who rely on you, and for yourself.
Melody delivered the keynote at this long-running gathering centered on connection, dignity, and the everyday impact of care — speaking on resilience, burnout, and the importance of sustaining yourself in a demanding field.
Melody shares her experience on both sides of caregiving — as primary caregiver to her son with special needs, and as a care recipient after a serious car accident. Practical advice on creating the mental, emotional and physical space caregivers need.
Caregiving touches everyone, and that reality follows people to work. Melody talks through the issue from three sides at once — caregiver, business owner, and employee.
The fullest telling of the turning point — an accident that left Melody temporarily paralyzed, and what she came to understand about self-care only while watching her own caregiver work.
On the consistency and vigilance caregiving demands, and its impact on self, family and career — drawn from nearly 25 years of it, and from the months Melody spent needing care herself.
A wide-ranging conversation on caregiving, resilience, and staying anchored to your own purpose while carrying responsibility for someone else’s wellbeing.
Keynotes, workshops and panels on caregiving, burnout and resilience — for conferences, healthcare organizations, and employers supporting caregiving staff.
