During Caregiving, Dealing with Mansplainers
About this episode
Denise M. Brown discusses how to deal with mansplainers during caregiving.
You know more than they do. You live this caregiving life every minute of every day — and yet, the mansplainers show up anyway, ready to tell you what you should do based on a headline they skimmed or a story they heard through someone's cousin's best friend's brother.In this episode, we talk about recognizing the red flags before the lecture begins and the three detours that can save your patience, your energy, and your faith in humanity. Because you know best — and it's okay to leave the mansplainers behind and keep going. Resources Purchase Denise's five-book Take Comfort series so you always have comfort with you.
