Gracie Land: A Sacred Retreat into the Heart of Dementia

In this tender solo episode, Jess opens the gate to Gracie Land — a symbolic garden where those with dementia retreat for safety, simplicity, and emotional memory. She shares the story behind the garden and the five whispers every caregiver needs to hear when navigating the heartbreaking beauty of regression. This is not a step-by-step guide — it’s a heart-to-heart, a soft place to land, and an invitation to stop chasing and start meeting your loved one right where they are.

Because in Gracie Land… the petals fall in reverse.
And that’s precisely where love still blooms.

“They’re not fading… they’re retreating to the garden. Let’s meet them there.” 🌱
