This mini episode contains excerpts from the full episode and addresses what happens when friends and family drop away and the social invitations to caregivers cease.

Heidi Rome helps us approach this situation and reminds us that there are folks who are open to learning how to support the caregiver and are willing to show up; making choices such as to love instead of fear. These folks ask Heidi's two helpful questions: "how can I be of service?" and "what is needed?"

Heidi shares an optical illusion to illustrate how what we focus on can impact our quality of life. To see this illustration the video version is available on the YouTube channel
