About Kristy Monique

Hi, I’m Kristy Monique. I’ve been a caregiver for nearly 20 years—professionally as a CNA, and personally as the full-time caregiver for my beautiful mother until she passed in September 2024.

I’m also a woman living with Chiari malformation, a VP shunt, and the survivor of three brain surgeries—the last of which I had during the pandemic while caring for my mom… and still being a mother.

Life didn’t ask me if I was ready. It just handed me the storms. But somehow, I kept showing up. That’s what caregivers do.

Today, I’m a mother to a courageous little boy with Type 1 diabetes, a published author, and the creator of The Caregiver Survival Guide—a book born from everything I wish I’d had when I was drowning in appointments, grief, decisions, and exhaustion.

This space, and this story, is for you. Whether you’re just stepping into caregiving or you’ve been carrying the weight for years—you're not alone. I’m still healing, still learning, and still showing up. And I’m here to walk with you through the mess, the beauty, and everything in between.

Healing Is My Hustle. And if you’re reading this... it might be yours too.
