My Caregiving Mission with Mark Wilson

Author: Elizabeth Miller Featured on The Whole Care Network September 25, 2024 Duration: 58:23

In this episode of the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, meet Mark Wilson, a former senior leader at Taco Bell with a focus on organization and people development. After retiring early to care for his mom, who lived with mixed dementia, Mark embraced the role of a 'Care Leader.' Combining his corporate HR skills with his caregiving journey, he developed a dedicated care mission, hired and retained top-notch professional caregivers, and became a passionate learner about dementia care.


In this episode, we also delve into Mark's new missions since his caregiving duties have ended and explore how 'holy moments' and the 'mood elevator' have shaped his daily life.
