86. How to Find Reliable Dementia Caregiving Resources With Traci Lamb
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Monday Feb 26, 2024
Are you navigating the complex journey of caregiving for a loved one? In today's podcast episode, we explored an inspiring story of innovation and dedication in the caregiving community.
The episode introduces us to a visionary who transformed personal experiences and professional expertise into a beacon of hope for caregivers worldwide. After years in legal and hospice care, and witnessing firsthand the challenges caregivers face, our guest founded a company dedicated to supporting those in the caregiving trenches.
Traci Lamb is the CEO/Founder of Caregiving Worldwide Network. She is a multi-award winning entrepreneur who has created the only global platform in mass media that is specifically geared to the unpaid millions of caregivers worldwide and the healthcare industry.
After working for hospice for over 13 years, Traci saw a huge gap in the healthcare industry in that people taking care of their loved ones at home did not have a “one stop shop” where they could find products/services that could help them on their caregiving journey.
With the creation of the Caregiving Worldwide TV show in January, 2023, Traci decided to change that. By providing a platform that connected caregivers worldwide to various products and services that could help them, she was able to connect the dots and allow the synergies to come together.
With over 600k viewers across 7 countries after the initial first 12 episodes, Caregiving Worldwide has now expanded to a global streaming TV Network - CWN. Multiple new series, with celebrities already signed on to bring new series to the network starting in 2024, along with new talent, new innovative products and services will be pouring out of the network over the next few months and even years.
The sky is the limit and Traci can’t wait to reach the stars.
