About this listen
Caregiving doesn’t clock out when the workday begins. In this episode, we’re digging into the messy, complicated relationship between careers and caregiving. From rearranging schedules and navigating understanding (or not-so-understanding) bosses, to the guilt of missing opportunities or feeling like you’re always one step behind, we share our own experiences of trying to balance it all.
We talk about how caregiving has shaped our career paths, the emotional load we carry into the workplace, and the strategies we’ve found to cope with the chaos. Whether you see work as a refuge or just another stressor, this episode is all about being real about the tug-of-war between professional goals and personal responsibilities.
If you’ve ever tried to juggle conference calls with care home visits, or wondered how caregiving fits into your long-term career plans, this one’s for you.
