Yes! I Have a Voice
Caregivers are entitled to be seen and heard. We are ready to speak out and come out of the shadows. This podcast series is to support one another and share the tools that will support us in our own wellbeing, mentally and physically, to make not only the lives of the people we are looking after better, but also our lives too. The time is now to be proud and loud about being a caregiver, while staying healthy yourself!
