So how do we caregivers cope with this “negative cost?”  Our greatest joy, and often our professional calling, is caring for others.  We’re the helpers, healers, and people-people on the planet…  Healthcare workers, teachers, managers, parents, friends… If you fall into this category and have been feeling burned out, checked out, or just “over it” in general then this episode is for you… Join me and my special guest, Dr. Adriana Popescu, for an in-depth conversation on the what, why, and most important way out of compassion fatigue.
