Stories That Inspire Us welcomed to today’s podcast, Melissa Miller. Melissa is a former Certified Nursing Assistant turned full time Online Business Owner and Stay At Home Mom and Spousal Caregiver.
Melissa’s story began in 2019 when her husband suffered an epiletpic seizure. (He had no prior history and the road to a diagnosis was a long and twisted journey. She describes her journey as throwing spaghetti to the wall.)
In May, 2020, Melissa’s husband’s health started to rapidly decline from the series of epileptic seizures that he had been having since December 2019, Melissa decided to embark on a temporary 3 week medical leave.
It wasn’t until July, 2020 when it became out of necessity to care for her husband and daughter following an official diagnosis of epilepsy.
(As she described her journey with great detail, I was struck by how calm, raw and authentic she was. As a new Mom with a toddler at the time, she was faced with an uncertainty of these epiplipetic episodes which she described as “fire storms”.)
It is Melissa’s mission to share her story to help other moms/spousal caregivers who were facing similar situations after her own struggle with finding resources in her own transition journey into being a full time Stay At Home Mom and Spousal Caregiver.
She encourages any Mom who has been thrust into this rollercoaster, spaghetti thrown to the wall situation that you don’t have to go it alone. She now coaches Mom’s who are stay-at-home Mom’s and spousal caregiver. She offers free consultations and stresses that it doesn’t have to be that your spouse suffers from epilepsy; it can be any type of chronic illness that she can assist you with.
Melissa coaches and encourages her clients with her Prompt Method:
