The new year is a time for new beginnings, growth, change, and goals—both personal and professional. Maybe you feel like you’re in a rut from sitting at a desk day in and day out, maybe you’re tired of working with people who are too similar to you, or maybe you just don’t feel fulfilled and are longing to make an impact.
It’s past noon and you haven’t had a chance to eat a full meal, finish that cup of coffee abandoned on the kitchen counter, or even respond to text messages you received yesterday from friends checking in on how you are doing. This is the life of a family caregiver well on their way to a condition known as ‘caregiver burnout’.
