À propos de cet audio

 In Love Doesn't Pay the Bills, we explore the role of family caregivers in the modern United States through personal stories and interviews with leaders. Care work is vital to all other aspects of life, yet often under-resourced. Caregivers cannot house and feed ourselves or provide for our own medical needs based on our love for our family members alone: access to income matters. We also have the same needs as other workers for regular time off, to participate in social life and recreation, and for ongoing education and new opportunities over time. email Lisa: lisatschudi@twosquaredmediaproductions.com

  • There are Roles for Both Informal and Formal Supports in Caregiving: With Guest Donna Thomson

    There are Roles for Both Informal and Formal Supports in Caregiving: With Guest Donna Thomson
    Apr 24 2025
    Informal or natural supports are care that is provided as part of a relationship, unpaid and outside of particular organizations or structures. It's what we build relationships from and a deep part of being human. Formal supports are the paid caregivers who do specific tasks at specific times as part of a paid job within some kind of organization. For example: A parent providing care for their own child is informal support, and a teacher at a preschool provides formal support. Formal supports cannot replace family care, but they can wrap around the whole dyad or family to support the meaningful, loving care which happens informally. Donna Thomson is a co-author of a study on the interaction between formal supports and informal.

    Donna Thomson is a caregiver, author and award-winning educator. She is the mother of two grown children, one who has severe cerebral palsy and medical complexity. Donna also helped care for her mother who lived with dementia until she passed away in the summer of 2018 at the age of 96. Donna is the co-author (with Dr. Zachary White) of The Unexpected Journey of Caring: The Transformation of Loved One to Caregiver (Rowman & Littlefield, 2019) and author of The Four Walls of My Freedom: Lessons I’ve Learned From a Life of Caregiving (The House of Anansi Press, 2014). Donna is a co-founder and Co-Director of CanChild Family Engagement in Research Program and she facilitates the Caregiving Essentials Course, all at McMaster University. She currently sits on the advisory board of the Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence where she won the inaugural Vickie Cammack Trailblazer Award.

  • Everybody Cares: With Guest Jay Chaudry

    Everybody Cares: With Guest Jay Chaudry
    Apr 3 2025
    Jay Chaudry and Lisa get philosophical about care. We acknowledge the multi-faceted nature of care as a main feature of the human experience. Beyond narratives that place care firmly on one side or the other of various binary descriptions, care is woven in many ways throughout our lives. What does this have to do with public policy? How might we change our advocacy if we view care as an important, key part of our humanity?

    Read Jay's full article, "Beyond False Binaries in Care
    New perspectives on the most fundamental of human activities" here: https://open.substack.com/pub/favorablethrivingconditions/p/beyond-false-binaries-in-care?r=mras5&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

    Jay Chaudhary has the unique experience of simultaneously creating policy for and executing a successful state behavioral health strategy. During his five year tenure as Director of the Indiana Division of Mental Health and Addiction and Chair of the Indiana Behavioral Health Commission, Jay led a significant overhaul of Indiana’s behavioral health system, resulting in a significant jump in the state’s overall mental health rankings.
    Jay has recently begun a new journey as Senior Fellow for Mental Health and Wellness at the Sagamore Institute, an Indianapolis, Indiana based research institution. Jay’s work at Sagamore focuses on continued advocacy for equitable behavioral health care access and exploration of strategies for improving overall community well-being.
    Jay is an Aspen Institute Ascend Fellow and has received a number of accolades for his work, including being named a “20 Under 40” State Government Leader from the Council of State Governments and a ”Champion of Justice” by the Indiana Judges Association.
