Episode 10: Burnout

This episode looks at the burnout that parents feel and ways to combat that. It also stresses the idea that feeling burnout does not make you weak or any less of a parent. As parents to neurodivergent kiddos, sometimes we feel like we aren’t supposed to feel these things. That it is somehow seen as weak or inappropriate to feel the weight of our lives. We have to remember that we are human, and humans experience burnout. The other thing to remember is that even parents to neurotypical children experience burnout, so there is absolutely no shame in having a normal human reaction to something that is happening in your life.
