Why “more helpful”? Because I think that most spring cleaning information I run across is not helpful, at least not how I need it to be. So today, we’re going to do what we often do: we’re going to tackle both perspective and practicality.

Is there a way to compassionately experience stressful situations? There actually is, and author and licensed trauma therapist, Aundi Kolber, is on the show today to talk about how.
Learn about the flow of strength (a mind-blowing concept), the difference between triggers and glimmers, and how honoring your body's pace is just as important as the healing itself. Aundi's first time with us was one of the most downloaded episodes in the history of the show, so I can't wait for you to hear from her again.

Let’s take a minute to validate the complexity that is caregiving. It’s loving and fulfilling and something we’re probably honored to do. Most often, we’re caring for people we deeply love, who are desperately important to us, and when pressed, we’d likely say it’s an honor and privilege to care for that person or people. 
But caregiving is also constant and often draining. It takes so much energy to be on for people pretty much all the time, especially when we’re tending to their needs more than our own.
