“Something’s not right with Mum or Dad — now what?”
Many families notice small changes long before a diagnosis
If something about Mum or Dad feels different, you’re probably not imagining it. You don’t have to figure this out alone.
Over the past decade, I’ve helped more than 1,000 families navigate this exact moment.

You might be noticing things like this
-
Mum repeating herself more often
-
Dad getting confused with bills or appointments
-
Things going missing
-
Stories that don’t quite make sense
-
Small changes in mood or personality
And you might also be wondering:
“Is this dementia or just normal ageing?”
“Am I overreacting?”
“Why does Dad seem different lately?”
“Should I say something — or wait?”
“What if I upset them for nothing?”
If this feels familiar, you’re not imagining it — and you’re not alone.
Three simple steps your family can take next
FYI: You don’t need to figure everything out today
— just the next step.
👵🏼 Notice the changes
Understand the specific changes you're seeing and why acting early helps.
☀️ Start the conversation
Learn how to raise concerns with Mum or Dad without causing fear or defensiveness. And what to do if Mum or Dad dismisses the problem
📝 Encourage a doctor visit
Your role isn’t to diagnose — it’s simply to help them see their doctor. Then prepare for the appointment: Know what to ask and what to say
This is exactly what the Dementia Playbook walks you through, step by step.
When families have a clear plan, everything starts to feel more manageable
Families often start here:
Overwhelmed, scared and unsure
Unsure what the future looks like
Second-guessing every moment
Differing opinions between siblings
Alone, with no idea where to turn
😧
😧
😧
😧
😧
After working through the Dementia Playbook:
Feel calmer, clearer, more confident
Know exactly what to say and do next
Make tough moments easier with proven strategies
Have a clear plan so the future feels less scary
Support Mum without losing yourself

“When we first noticed changes in Dad, we didn’t know where to start. Melissa’s videos and checklists helped us make sense of what was happening and talk as a family without it turning into an argument. We finally felt like we had a plan and hope.”
Hayley C, Sydney
"The weekly Q&As have been a lifeline. Hearing Melissa answer questions, and realising other families are facing the same things, makes me feel less alone and more capable of handling what’s ahead. Thank you thank you!"
Anne S, Darlinghurst
“When Mom’s dementia got harder.. the wandering, the aggression, our family was falling apart. Everyone had a different idea of what to do. Melissa helped us see the bigger picture and gave us tools we could all agree on. We stopped spinning in panic and started working together with empathy instead of fear.”
Sam T, New York

Common questions
Is this for me/my family?
If you're supporting a parent or loved one with dementia and want to feel less overwhelmed and more prepared — yes, this is for you.
Don't we need to see you in person?
No — and here's why this works better. Professional dementia support often has 6+ month waitlists. My Dementia Playbook gives you expert strategies 24/7, plus live weekly Q&A where I answer your family's specific questions — all for less than the cost of one appointment.
Is this just for Australians?
No, not at all — dementia is a universal experience.
Families worldwide share the same fears and challenges. Just note I use 'Mum' instead of 'Mom' and 'Ageing' instead of 'Aging'.
What if this isn't right for me?
If you're not satisfied within 7 days, contact me for a full refund.
No questions asked.
What access will I have to Melissa?
Pre-recorded workshops, live webinars, and weekly Q&A sessions. Plus a private member community to connect with me, my team, and other families (coming soon).
