About this listen

Genevieve Richardson of Life Beyond Aphasia joins us to share a powerful, honest look at what life is really like for caregivers navigating aphasia. Drawing from her experience as a speech-language pathologist, she breaks down the emotional weight, identity shifts, and day-to-day challenges that often go unseen.Genevieve introduces her “ACE Filter,” a practical tool that helps caregivers better understand communication breakdowns by asking: is it aphasia, cognition, or the environment? She also shares her 9-step roadmap for caregivers facing sudden life changes and grief, offering guidance on how to adapt, cope, and keep moving forward.This episode highlights the invisible work caregivers do, the reality of burnout, and why recognizing progress, even when it’s hard to see, matters more than ever.#aphasia #strokerecovery #caregiversupport #caregiverlife #braininjuryrecovery #speechtherapy #slp #lifeafterstroke #caregiverburnout #invisibleprogress #healingjourney #caregiverawareness #aphasiarecovery #supportcaregivers #communicationmatters #strokeawareness #recoveryjourney #mentalhealthmatters #caregivercommunity #whenwordsdontcomeeasy
