TDAA Episode 33 | Neurocognitive Disorders

Dr. Meow Meow, Dr. Sparks, and Kyle Steury dive into neurocognitive disorders.

We'll try to break down what terms like dementia and Alzheimer’s really mean, symptoms and pathologies, and why behavior changes aren’t always as straightforward as they seem. Along the way, we share personal stories, practical examples, and try to keep it light to keep things grounded.

The conversation hits on everything from medical causes of confusion to how isolation, anxiety, and environment can impact cognition. Most importantly, we talk about how to interact with people experiencing cognitive decline in a way that’s compassionate, realistic, and actually helpful without losing your sense of humor or humanity.

It’s serious stuff, but it doesn’t have to feel heavy the whole time.
