Love these conversation starters from CGC!

During this time of year, we think of things that bring joy to our lives. Your clients are no different! To truly support clients with dignity and compassion, certified professional guardians must first understand what matters most to them.

Here are 10 simple, yet powerful questions to help uncover what brings your clients joy, purpose, and meaning:
1️⃣ What did you enjoy doing as a kid? Any favorite foods or traditions?
2️⃣ Who are your favorite singers or bands? What music moves you?
3️⃣ Are you into any sports—watching or playing?
4️⃣ What are some places you've loved visiting?
5️⃣ What do you do just for fun?
6️⃣ Is there something you’ve always wished you could do or have?
7️⃣ What’s one thing I could do to make your life better?
8️⃣ What would you like help accomplishing?
9️⃣ If you had one wish, what would it be?
🔟 What do you wish people understood about you?

Asking these questions can open the door to deeper connection, better care, and more meaningful and joyful lives. Do you have other questions to share with us? Use the comments below to add to the list!
