Are you currently a caregiver for an aging parent or loved one? If so, you will especially appreciate today’s episode. If not, there’s something here for you, too. Because even though today’s gal pal has an amazing story about caring for her Mom at the end of her life, it’s what she did with that story, that chip happening kind of experience, that’s so inspiring. And when you hear a story like this with heart and humor, somehow it stirs our spirit with hope that no matter what you’re going through right now, there can be a beautiful flip side in the future.

Today’s gal pal, Breeda Miller has one of those stories. Breeda is an author, speaker, storyteller, and accidental caregiver. She had no training as a caregiver and no medical background. She didn't know what she didn't know. What she did know is that she loved her mom, who could no longer live on her own. So, her Mom moved in with Breeda’s family and for nearly 8 years they cared for her. It was good until it wasn't. The experience led her to write several books and speak on strategies for caregivers and for preventing burnout. And then something more, something unexpected happened. She created a one-woman show called Mrs. Kelly’s Journey Home, which premiered in October 2021. Audiences laughed, shed a few tears, and gave standing ovations. Because it’s about the amazing human spirit of an ordinary person with an extraordinary outlook on life.

In this episode we talk about:

  • What to do if you knew you couldn’t fail
  • The power of story
  • How to perform a one-woman show
  • The importance of self-care when you are a caregiver

Here’s a glance:

[4:26] Breeda embraces her Solid Sister nail color persona whole-heartedly and her go-to fav is a bold, not overwhelming medium pink.

[7:48] After the pandemic, Breeda asked herself what she would do if she knew she couldn’t fail and it led her to pen her play with no regrets.

[9:31] Breeda shares the details of her life before embarking on the creative journey of writing and performing Mrs. Kelly Journey Home.

[19:37] Breeda describes the downsides of vanity projects.

[20:24] Family members, friends, and others from all backgrounds have lauded Breeda for the authenticity of her one-woman show.

[26:56] Breeda describes what it takes to perform Mrs. Kelly’s Journey Home with four different characters without any costume or set changes.

[38:15] Breeda’s lessons on caregiving include giving yourself compassion when it comes to guilt and that it is okay to take a break.

[43:17] Breeda wrote her book, Take a Break Before You Break, for anyone who cares for anyone else.

[49:15] To inspire caregivers to take a break, Breeda would create the nail color, Cuppa Tea.

[54:49] In the Flip the Chip segment Mary highlights the powerful question Breeda asked herself.
