Dietitian and health coach Jessica Cording had always thought that she' d be prepared to cope if a loved one were to become ill, but when her father was diagnosed at age 61 with advanced pancreatic cancer, she quickly realised she had a lot to learn as her family turned their lives upside down to care for him. A veteran of the music industry with an irreverent sense of humour, Cording' s father referred to the last months of his life as ' The Farewell Tour. ' With Cording' s warm sense of humour, personal anecdotes, and tips from a range of wellness experts, this is a resource all caregivers can benefit from.
This caregiver' s guide is so much more than a self-care tool. Cording weaves in personal anecdotes of her own caregiver journey, star-studded interviews, and yes, even music playlists. This framework makes it an interesting read that' s also chock-full of tips to help you take care of yourself so you can show up better for those you' re tending to. --Samantha Cassetty, MS, RD, nutrition and wellness expert and co-author of Sugar Shock I know all too well how difficult caregiving can be and this book, which blends approachable advice, personal story, and even a playlist, is an essential tool to help avoid or recover from burnout. You' ll learn the basics of what to eat to keep your energy and mood up, how to improve sleep, make movement part of your life even with minimal time, and more. No matter where on your journey you are, The Farewell Tour can help lighten the load. --Max Lugavere, NY Times Best-selling author, science journalist, and podcast host Jessica Cording has utilized the best of her massive talents as a storyteller, interviewer, and dietitian/health coach to create this extraordinary book that I know I will continue to pick up and read for years to come. --Adam Wade, 20-Time Moth StorySlam Winner and Author of You Ought to Know Adam Wade The Farewell Tour is a life resource tool that the entire world could use right now -- not just caregivers. Clever and heart-warming, illuminating and raw, Jessica shares her expert ingredients and soundtrack for a well-lived life. --Kate Eckman, award-winning author of The Full Spirit Workout The Farewell Tour is so much MORE than a book-- it' s a guidepost for anyone, anywhere who is (or will become) a caregiver. It' s truly THE book that I so desperately wanted to read (and searched for to no avail!) when my dad was sick, and I laughed, cried, and yelped affirmations aloud as I devoured it start-to-finish in an afternoon. Jess is as masterful at writing and storytelling as she is at applying science-based evidence to her patients' real lives as a health practitioner. Yes, this book is filled with compassion, love, humor, resilience, and grief; but it' s also an exceptionally practical guide that provides tangible, actionable strategies that can help make life less difficult so that you can make the most of the time you have with the people you love. --Jaclyn London, MS, RD, CDN, Consultant, Brand/Media Expert, and Author, Dressing on the Side (and Other Diet Myths Debunked): 11 Science-Based Ways to Eat More, Stress Less, and Feel Great About Your Body This is an important resource for caregivers of all kinds. Jess' s engaging combination of storytelling, actionable tips, and mind-body wellness insight makes this an approachable, relatable tool for the overwhelmed caregiver. --Jason Wachob, Founder & Co-CEO, mindbodygreen
