Becoming a Caregiver-A First Person Experience

Fearless Fabulous You Host Melanie Young shares her own experience caring for her elderly mother after she fell and broke her hip and her advice for coping. "Honestly, being a family caregiver is an upaid job many feel unprepared to take on. Yet, much is expected of you," says Young. Caregiving responsibilities often require a family member (usually the daughter) to be on call to address a loved one's personal, health and financial needs. Many caregivers neglect their own self-care as a result.

Fearless Fabulous You is broadcast live Wednesdays at 12 Noon ET.
