episode 30: The Brochure on Life's Unscripted Emergencies
Dealing with emergencies. This is something that as humans we are going to experience. The question is, how do we react and can we learn to react better?
Emergencies can take many forms. In this episode, I will tell you about my experience with floods that take over living spaces, dealing with my husband's diabetes and horses. I recount the upheaval of my friend's recent flood experience and the intricate dance of managing my husband Bill's type 1 diabetes—two tales that teach us about the calm amid the storm and the art of preparedness.
Amid these tales of turmoil, we also examine the subtleties of offering a helping hand. It's often a fine line between support and suffocation, and I share the steps I've learned to ensure Bill feels bolstered, not burdened. Our conversation might just arm you with the grace to face the next sudden turn, and the wisdom to build a community that can stand strong together. So, tune in and let's navigate the tightrope of life's emergencies with poise and a touch of humor, promising a beacon of light for the path ahead. And don't forget the paper towels!
