"Caregiving is part of your life, but it is not the whole story. You are a multifaceted, multipassionate, dynamic person with passions, dreams, and joys that deserve attention. It’s time to start nurturing those parts of yourself too—because when you do, you’ll not only find more joy in caregiving, but more joy in life."

Dr. Michelle encourages listeners to embrace discipline—not as something that steals our joy, but as a tool that helps create it. She discusses how discipline is the key to serving from abundance, to living with intention, and to ensuring that joy is something you experience daily.

"When caregivers are disciplined about their own joy, we’re collectively raising the consciousness of how care should work. It’s not about self-sacrifice. It’s about sustainable, joyful service."
