Najla Turk: Realising that to be a carer for others, you have to care for yourself
From a young age, Najla Turk had an appetite for learning but was surrounded by people and systems who made her doubt herself. It wasn’t until she married, and started her family, that she realised that she needed to overcome her self doubt, and become the role model she wanted to be to her daughters, and to herself. As Najla pursued her education, she found herself juggling the incredibly difficult 24/7 role of a carer - first for her father, and then her own husband. Using the same tenacity that saw her achieve her education goals, Najla now uses self-care and compassion to be an advocate and role model for other unpaid carers and their needs.
