Caring for someone with dementia can feel like trying to find your way through a storm without a map.
You’re doing everything you can — but the constant changes, confusion, and exhaustion can make you doubt whether you’re doing it right.
Dementia Care Confidence helps you regain calm, clarity, and control by learning to lead care like a true Care Leader.
Created by physician, TEDx speaker, and caregiver advocate Dr. Anna Thomas, this book teaches you how to lead yourself, your care partnership, and your support team with confidence and compassion.
Lead Yourself Well — Protect your energy, manage your emotions, and find balance in the midst of change.
Lead the Care Partnership — Understand what’s happening in the brain, strengthen communication, and respond effectively to dementia-related challenges.
Lead the Team — Build and organize your care network so you’re supported, not overwhelmed.

ou love them. You’d do anything for them. But no matter how hard you try, dementia keeps changing the rules.
The person you care for doesn’t always recognize you. Conversations that once felt easy now end in frustration or tears. You’re tired, stretched thin, and sometimes feel like you’re failing — even though you’re giving everything you have.
The truth is, caregiving isn’t just about love — it’s about leadership.
When you learn to lead yourself well, understand what’s really happening in the brain, and build the right team around you, everything changes.
That’s what Dementia Care Confidence helps you do:
to move from reacting in crisis to leading with calm, clarity, and compassion.
Once you understand what’s really happening in the brain, everything about dementia care changes.
In this free 60-minute Brain Behind Dementia Masterclass, Dr. Thomas explains what’s going on inside the brain — and how those changes affect memory, behavior, and communication.
You’ll see that what looks like resistance, anger, or confusion often has a neurological reason — and when you understand the “why,” you can respond with calm instead of frustration.
This is the bridge between medical insight and real-life caregiving — and your next step toward leading care with confidence.
5 Brain Regions Affected by Dementia — and how they shape daily behaviors
4 Stages of Dementia Progression— and how to approach care in each stage
3 Key Caregiver Responsibilities — simplified into manageable steps
2 Communication Truths —that reduce tension and build connection
1 Core Principle — the fundamental principle that will transform caregiving

You don’t have to wear the title “caregiver” to be one. If you’re balancing deadlines and doctor appointments, managing both work and care, or trying to hold everything together without falling apart — you’re already leading more than you realize.
