As September unfolds, we celebrate a milestone that carries both professional pride and personal meaning - 15 years of Care Indeed.
When I look back at 2024, I see it as a year of breaking.
A year that stripped layers- of comfort, control, and certainty. It was filled with loss, betrayal, and change. A season of trying to make sense of things when nothing seemed to make sense.
But I now see that it was a year of becoming. Because sometimes, life has to break you open before it can grow you.
And 2025, for me, has been a year of acceptance.
Of trusting the process.
Of meeting people where they are.
Of allowing things to unfold naturally, while staying anchored in truth, kindness, and showing up as my best self — even on the hardest days.
This year, we welcomed new people into Care Indeed - individuals who brought fresh ideas, challenged our norms, and inspired us to grow.
We also deepened our mission to build better dementia care providers - caregivers who don’t just see the disease, but the person behind it. This initiative was not just a training program; it was a movement that reminded us what caregiving truly means.
We redefined leadership- not by titles or power, but by humility, empathy, and accountability.
We reminded one another that real power is not about control, but about connection - bringing people together, speaking truthfully, and holding ourselves responsible for what we do and who we become.
Personally, as I continue my master’s in gerontology, I’ve been learning deeply about emotional regulation and resilience. There were moments I truly felt I had no more strength left to give - but faith carried me. One small, courageous step at a time became progress.
As I look at the evolving landscape of home care, I no longer see other agencies as competitors - I see partners.
Together, we share the sacred duty to elevate care, uplift caregivers, and honor aging as a universal journey.
The world may feel divided at times, but our calling as caregivers is to bridge that divide — to be caretakers not only of people’s health, but of hope, peace, and understanding.
If there’s one thing I want Care Indeed to be remembered for, it’s not perfection.
Not being the biggest.
But being honest, ethical, and real - a company that tries, every single day, to do what’s right.
I believe that in a field so deeply human, second chances should be given to those who deserve them because growth is also a form of care.
We are grateful for both the triumphs that made us proud and the challenges that shaped us. Each hardship refined our patience, deepened our faith, and reminded us that love - when lived with purpose - never fails.
Fifteen years later, my heart is certain of this:
The world needs more compassion, not less.
More honesty, not convenience.
More empathy, not ego.
As a caregiver, a leader, and a lifelong student of aging, I’ve learned that our true strength lies not in what we know, but in our capacity to connect - to see each person as whole, to listen to their story, and to serve with love.
As we enter this next chapter, may we continue to lead with faith, serve with humility, and care - deeply, sincerely, and without boundaries.
Because in the end, caregiving is not just what we do.
It’s who we are.
