Robin Weeks

CAREGIVER
COACH

It's simple.

My mission keeps me focused and determined. My vision provides constant fuel. And my values set the PATH forward.

Since being thrown into caregiving in 2011, I have set out to disrupt the caregiving industry.

A parent’s terminal illness has a way of bringing pause. A way of prompting us to reconsider our priorities.

Only months into the journey as Primary Caregiver for my mother, I was exhausted.

I realized that in order to manage my mother’s needs, I needed to be well.

I needed to set and enforce boundaries.
I needed to take care of myself.

And importantly, I needed to become proactive instead of reactive.

I became a Communications Specialist when navigating the healthcare system.

I became an Advocate as I considered tough situations and made decisions.

And I became a Program Coordinator as I facilitated a myriad of departments, services, and people.

BE THERE FOR OTHERS,

But Never Leave Yourself Behind

Maybe you’ve been promised support before. But then the agencies, social workers, therapists, and self-help gurus you’ve interacted with came and went with no lasting change to be seen.

As a former caregiver and certified caregiver coach, I will guide you through experiential activities, such as meditation, difficult conversations, and journaling. I will also provide you with the coaching, support, and resources to foster your understanding and help you through the whole caregiving experience.

Being a family caregiver is to be in a constant state of love, compassion, guilt, exhaustion, selflessness, and stress. The truth is, this will touch you in a way nothing else will. But the truth is also that you must never leave yourself behind.
