Have you ever felt like your entire identity was being swallowed up by a medical diagnosis—either your own or a loved one's? In my latest conversation, I speak with Licensed Professional Counselor Ronda Thorington about the "caregiver" label and why it can sometimes feel so restrictive. We dive deep into the concept of vicarious trauma and the essential truth that "we are not our burdens". If you’ve been struggling to balance your own needs with those of your family, this episode is a permission slip to see yourself as a whole person again.
