Lost in Translation: How Texting Deepens Caregiver Isolation (Episode 155)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Caregiving can already feel isolating, and the way we communicate might be making it worse. In this short episode, Stephanie Muskat breaks down why texting can quietly deepen that isolation. A delayed reply, a one-word answer, or silence can easily be misread as rejection, anger, or indifference when you're already overwhelmed. Stephanie explains how text strips away tone and connection, and why phone calls, video chats, or even voice notes can help caregivers feel less alone in certain caregiving situations.
