Welcome Carrie Severson
The Whole Care Network welcomes Carrie Severson to our podcast family!
At the Whole Care Network, we believe that caregiving isn’t just about the big moments — it’s about the everyday actions, the humor in the chaos, and the shared stories that help us navigate the challenges of caring for others and ourselves. Today, we’re thrilled to welcome a new voice to our community, one that brings humor, honesty, and heart to the caregiving journey: Carrie Severson and her groundbreaking podcast, “I Saved You, Now Do The Dishes.”
Meet Carrie Severson
Carrie is a dedicated family caregiver, passionate advocate, and writer who has spent years supporting her loved ones through health challenges. Her personal journey as a caregiver — specifically in advocating for her husband through his cancer diagnosis — is the heart of her podcast. Carrie’s story is one of resilience and self-discovery, but she also knows firsthand that caregiving can lead to burnout and strain on relationships. That’s why she created “I Saved You, Now Do The Dishes” — to help other caregivers reclaim their own well-being and find balance in the chaos of caregiving.
“I Saved You, Now Do The Dishes” — A Podcast for Caregivers, Advocates, Spouses and Partners
Carrie’s podcast takes a holistic approach to caregiving. Carrie brings her personal experience to the table, sharing stories of family caregiving, advocacy, burnout recovery, and the unique dynamics of marriage when one partner is also a patient. Each episode is filled with honest conversations and tips for navigating caregiving, especially when your care partner is your spouse. Carrie is committed to helping listeners bring harmony back into their lives during and after a traumatic health diagnosis.
Whether you’re caring for a spouse, parent, or loved one, “I Saved You, Now Do The Dishes” offers practical advice for balancing caregiving with your own needs.

Carrie shows how humor, boundaries, and emotional support can help ease the strain of caregiving.
