There are moments when being useful does not mean having an answer.

Sometimes people remember the person who stayed, listened, and made a difficult moment feel less lonely.

That is a skill worth valuing in yourself. Thank you for making others feel seen.💖

Thanksgiving is a cherished time when families and loved ones come together to celebrate the abundance of life's blessings.

It's a moment to gather around a table adorned with delectable dishes, sharing stories, laughter, and creating lasting memories.

This Thanksgiving, let's embrace the joy of reuniting with those who hold a special place in our hearts, and may our celebrations be filled with love, thankfulness, and the promise of more cherished moments to come.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Team at Dementia Solutions!❤️

A career is more than a collection of shifts, tasks, and years on a résumé. Think about the moments in your work that have stayed with you and ask what they reveal about what matters to you.

The answer may tell you more about your professional purpose than any job title ever could.💕

Reflecting on a lovely International Seniors Day last week. ❤️

We had the pleasure of attending the Seniors Fair in Port Coquitlam on October 1st, and it was wonderful to see so many people including CDN ElderCare Corp. & Seniors Choice For Care Inc. come together to celebrate and support older adults in our community.

International Seniors Day is such a great opportunity to pause and recognize the incredible contributions older adults have made -- and continue to make -- in our families, our communities, and our world. Whether someone is living with dementia or not, every person has a lifetime of experiences, stories, wisdom, and connections that are worth celebrating.

A special thank you to the Wilson Seniors Advisory Board for all the time and heart they put into making this event happen. They’ve been hosting the Seniors Fair for several years now and continue to be so active in supporting and connecting the Port Coquitlam community. It’s clear how much care goes into what they do. 💜

We’re always grateful for opportunities to connect with older adults, families, caregivers, and other community members. Days like this are a lovely reminder that there is so much to celebrate at every stage of life. ☀️

💙 Happy International Seniors Day! 💙

What better way to celebrate than by spending the day with our lovely community!

This morning I had the pleasure of presenting “How to Maintain a Healthy Brain” to a full room at Kerrisdale Community Centre in Vancouver. We talked about ways to support brain health, keep our minds active, and stay well as we age.

A big thank you to everyone who joined me and made it such a lovely morning! And today, especially, let’s celebrate and appreciate the wonderful seniors in our lives. ❤️

Your job can take up a great deal of your attention without becoming the whole of your life.

Make room for the things that make you laugh, feel alive, speak honestly, and remember who you are outside of your professional role.

Your life should not have to wait until you have more time.❤️
