Are you juggling meds, bills, and late-night Google searches while silently asking, “Why am I still failing?” Episode 267 of Dementia Caregiver Support for Christians exposes a hidden truth: burnout often happens when we care outside the wiring God gave us.

1. The Question That Changes Everything
“Let’s imagine it’s six months from today and your caregiving journey feels easier. What does easier actually look like for you?”
Your answer becomes a tailor-made target, not another generic checklist.

2. Discover Your Wiring
Lizette shares a story of a wife whose Kolbe A Index revealed she’s a brainstormer. After presenting Mom with two pre-filtered options instead of ten ideas, conflict vanished. Your Creator knit unique strengths into you; identifying them is the first step to peace.

3. Interdependence Beats Independence
Romans 12 says one body, many functions. The Think Different Dementia Method™ urges families to match tasks with talents. Love spreadsheets? Handle the finances. Thrive on hands-on care? Manage transfers. No comparison, just stewardship.

4. Contented Caregiver Blueprint™ in Action
Use the Do-Delay-Delete-Delegate grid. Delete tasks that do not require your strength. Delay deep-cleaning the attic. Delegate lawn care to a teen from church. Do the duties God specifically entrusted to you.

5. Therapeutic Truth-Telling™ for Communication
Speak calm, not chaos. Validating Mom’s reality before redirecting her questions preserves dignity and saves your energy.
