AI and Caregiving: Staying Human in a Digital World with Dr. Jeremy Holloway

About this episode

The episode discusses the integration of AI in caregiving while maintaining the essential human element.

AI is becoming part of everyday life, and for caregivers, that can bring both curiosity and quiet uncertainty. In this conversation, Isabel Melgarejo and Dr. Jeremy Holloway explore what it means to use AI in a way that feels supportive—without losing the human presence that caregiving requires. Together, they reflect on the balance between receiving help and staying grounded…. between using tools and holding on to your own judgment, intuition, and care. This is not about getting it right. It is about finding a way to let AI sit beside you—without letting it take your place. As you listen, you may begin to notice where AI could gently support you… and where your presence, your voice, and your understanding remain essential. There is no pressure here to use everything. Only an invitation to stay connected to what matters most.
