Many of us have always been labeled as ‘helpers’. Perhaps we have been this way since we were a child and decided to make a career out of dedicating our lives towards serving others in any way shape or form that we can. Maybe responsibility was thrust on us by taking care of an elderly relative, spouse, or even parenting a child through substance abuse. Regardless of the origin, we may have needs that have been long forgotten that have left us feeling fatigue.

Join us in this episode with Dr. Kimberly Parker, a mental health professional working in the field not only helping individuals get through their toughest of times— but providing guidance for those who are caregivers. Dr. Parker will help us identify when needs are not being met, offer suggestions on what we can do while simultaneously helping our clients or loved ones, as well as share her insights on what absolutely will not work.
