Interview With Lisa Skinner

Alzheimer's: Counter-Intuitive Solutions for Families and Caregivers

#AlzheimersCare #DementiaSupport #LisaSkinner

Hi, and welcome to the show!

On today's show I have the pleasure of welcoming Behavior Specialist, 2x Best Selling Author, International Podcast Host, and International TEDx Speaker, Lisa Skinner, to talk about how families and caregivers can build better-quality relationships with loved ones living with Alzheimer's and dementia through counter-intuitive solutions and practical tools.

For families facing an Alzheimer's or dementia diagnosis, the road ahead can feel overwhelming. But Lisa Skinner, a behavioral specialist with 25 years of experience, believes it doesn't have to be that way. Through her work as a community counselor and Regional Director of senior care facilities, Lisa has helped thousands of families discover that meaningful connection is still possible, even as brain disease progresses.

Lisa's approach focuses on counter-intuitive methods that truly work in real-world situations. Her #1 bestselling book, "Not All Who Wander Need Be Lost," reflects her compassionate philosophy: those living with dementia are traveling a different path that requires new ways of connecting. Her latest work, "Truth, Lies & Alzheimer's – Its Secret Faces," delves deeper into the hidden aspects of dementia that often catch families off guard.

Beyond her books, Lisa has created the Minding Dementia Summit and offers workshops, training courses, podcasts, and free resources designed to give caregivers clarity, support, and renewed hope. What sets Lisa apart is her focus on relationships rather than simply managing symptoms. Her message is clear: with the right education, tools, and support, it is possible to navigate this journey with grace and maintain meaningful connections that make all the difference.
