Many of us give care in big and small ways, and over time that caring can begin to feel heavy.
Together we will explore ways to notice when our own needs are being set aside, reflect on how caring can become draining, and consider gentle and sustainable ways to continue giving care while also tending to ourselves. The focus is on restoring balance, resilience, and a sense of renewal so that caring does not come at the cost of our own well being.
Join YMCA members Peter Dudley and Antoinette LeCouteur, authors of Relit How to Rekindle Yourself in the Darkness of Compassion Fatigue, for a thoughtful and engaging conversation about compassion fatigue and how it can show up in everyday life. This gathering is for anyone who supports others, whether at home, at work, or in the community.
