Lessons in How to Care: Betty the Bald Chicken

Alzheimer’s Speaks podcast host Lori La Bey joins Suzanne to talk about her new book ”Betty the Bald Chicken: Lessons in How to Care,” which addresses the caregiver’s journey, part of the Vitality Revolution podcast series sponsored by Humana focusing this month on Emotional Wellness. The book was written for kids as a children’s book, as a way for parents and grandparents to teach kids how to return empathy and learn how to better connect with people.

Do we as a society have empathy for people who don’t think the same way we do? How do we learn to forgive and move forward. Lori talks about CARE as the “Conscious Awakening of RElationships.” Sometimes it’s harder to accept care than to give care, yet we know how good it feels to help others. It makes us feel purposeful.

Lori La Bey has partnered with Answers for Elders and joins Suzanne this hour to address the caregiver’s journey. Lori’s podcast has been recognized by the National Institute for Dementia Education 2020, Oprah as “Health Hero” for 2018, Recognized by AARP MN as a 2018 “Disruptor and an Inspiring & Accomplished Leader,” by Maria Shriver as an “Architect of Change” in 2016 and by Dr. Oz and Sharecare as the “#1 Influencer Online for Alzheimer’s” in 2012.
