Millions Watched Him Care for His Grandmother. This Is What It Taught Him with Chris Punsalan, Caregiver, Creator, & Creative Director at tendercare
Episode 232
Wednesday, 18 March, 2026
Most caregivers don't call themselves caregivers. They're just helping someone they love. Chris Punsalan didn't set out to become one either. But when his grandmother could no longer care for herself, he stepped in. What followed was an eight-year journey that would reshape his life, identity, and purpose. In this conversation, Chris shares what caregiving really looks like behind closed doors, the emotional weight, the quiet moments of dignity, and the responsibility that changes you. We talk about grief, legacy, and the power of storytelling as a way to make others feel less alone. Chris is a content creator, former full-time caregiver, and now Creative Director at TenderCare, where he's helping build resources for families navigating care. His work has reached millions because it doesn't try to be perfect, it tells the truth. This episode is for anyone who has ever cared for someone, is caring for someone now, or will one day step into that role. Caregiving will touch all of us. The question is, are we prepared for it?
