Episode 10 – Not Today, Maybe Tomorrow: Self-Care for the Caregiver

Guest: Melissa
Host: Amanda Anschutz

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Melissa, a mother whose son battled cancer, to talk about the often invisible emotional weight caregivers carry and what it means to care for yourself while caring for someone you love.

We open up about:

• The emotional toll and silent burnout of caregiving

• How to redefine self-care when your world feels chaotic

• Giving yourself permission for rest, guilt-free grace, and small wins

• The power of telling your story and being seen in it

This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder for anyone in a caregiving role: You matter, too.
Compassion includes you, too.
