Caring for Yourself as You Care for Others with Tonya Nash (mom to two sons with autism‪)‬ Self Care and Soul Care for the Caregiver

    • Christianity

My guest for episode 32 is Tonya Nash! Tonya and I met through her work with her organization, Autism Faith Network (https://autismfaithnetwork.com). (https://autismfaithnetwork.com/) Their goal is to spread autism awareness and acceptance in faith-based settings.
In our conversation today, we talk about her role as a caregiver to two sons with autism. We talk about how she juggles the needs of both her boys, what support systems she has in place to help, and how she focuses on soul care. I especially enjoyed listening to her thoughts on mental health and the importance of finding the right counselor for you. July is Minority Mental Health Month, and these conversations are important to have so we normalize mental health care. I hope you enjoy listening to our conversation as much as we enjoyed the chance to chat!
