In this heartfelt episode of The Care Collective Podcast, author Jocelyn Jane Cox joins Mikayla to share the story behind her memoir Motion Dazzle, a powerful reflection on losing her mother to dementia while becoming a mother herself.

Jocelyn opens up about navigating grief, the emotional and financial realities of caregiving, finding humor in hardship, and learning to hold both joy and sorrow at once. Together, we talk about redefining self-care, the challenges of the “sandwich generation,” and what it truly means to be a caregiver.
