Episode 5: Growth Begins with Self-Awareness | Michele Bordonaro & The Caregiver Circle

Personal growth begins with self-awareness—and sometimes all it takes is understanding yourself in a new way.

In Episode 5 of The Caregiver Circle, Karen McKevitt and Michele Bordonaro guide co-host Meredith Stewart through a live DISC personality assessment, creating a powerful coaching session that many caregivers will see themselves in.

As Meredith explores her natural communication style, stress responses, and need for clarity, she experiences several "aha" moments that reveal why she approaches caregiving, relationships, and difficult decisions the way she does. Together, they discover that growth isn't about changing who you are—it's about understanding how you're uniquely wired.

In this episode, you'll learn:
How self-awareness leads to personal growth.
Why your caregiving style is shaped by your natural personality.
How understanding your stress responses can improve relationships.
Why "my silence is my thinking" can transform communication.
How embracing your strengths can help you care for others with greater confidence and less self-doubt.

Whether you're a caregiver or simply navigating life's unexpected changes, this conversation will encourage you to stop asking, "What's wrong with me?" and start asking, "How am I wired to grow?"
