Welcome to Dementia Dialogue
Our podcasts feature people with dementia and their care/life partners sharing experiences that may enable their peer listeners to understand and gain insight and strengthen their adaptive skills. Care providers understand this lived experience more fully and the public becomes more aware of what it means to live well with dementia.
Our current episodes are based on research on "Mapping the Dementia Journey" by Wiersma, et. al.
4 themes emerged for the research:
Changing and Adapting,
System Journey,
Focus on Self &
Relationships and Community

I have listened to each of the interviews, and they are all inspiring, each different and unique in their own way, but always with the connecting thread of the lived experiences. I’d love to meet the other contributors. I’m sure we would talk each other’s ears off! And I must applaud your own masterful interview skills. They brought out the very best in each of us as we told our stories. I am often approached by folks setting out on their own journeys, and up until now it’s been a challenge to recommend resources that don’t overwhelm. I will be recommending the Dementia Dialogue site as a great first stop, from now on."
