Description: This healing-centered session explores how caregivers can continue to show up for their young people and communities without sacrificing their own emotional well-being. Through reflection, discussion, and practical tools, participants will learn how to balance care for their young people with intentional self-care, creating a sustainable foundation for both personal and collective wellness.

Objectives: 

  • Discuss the importance of self-care as a core component of effective caregiving
  • Explore the internalized beliefs and external pressures caregivers experience that make it hard to balance caring for themselves while caring for others
  • Develop strategies for sustainable caregiving  and realistic self-care routines that help families  navigate caregiving with more balance and intention.
