Author: Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess February 13, 2026 Duration: 51:50
What if shopping for medical equipment felt empowering instead of depressing? Caregiving is hard enough. Getting the right equipment should not be. In this episode, Hosts Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess talk with Erica Sell, founder of Harmony Home Medical in San Diego, about how the right equipment can help families keep loved ones at home longer, safer, and with more independence.

Hosted by Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess, Love Conquers Alz emerges from a place of deep personal understanding. Both have walked the demanding path of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, and they channel that firsthand experience into every conversation. This isn't a clinical lecture, but a shared space where the emotional and practical realities of caregiving are met with compassion, resilience, and even moments of levity. The podcast draws a direct line from their acclaimed work, including their Oscar-qualified film "My Mom and The Girl" featuring Valerie Harper, translating that narrative empathy into ongoing dialogue. You'll hear honest discussions that span the spectrum from medical insights and daily fitness strategies for both caregiver and loved one, to the raw, emotional weight and unexpected grace notes found in this journey. The aim is to forge a sense of community, dismantling the isolation that can accompany this role by offering tangible advice, shared stories, and a reminder that you are not navigating this alone. Tune in for a blend of education, personal reflection, and supportive conversation that acknowledges the hardship while steadfastly focusing on the power of connection and love.
