Everyday Burnout Conversations

Episode 3 of Everyday Burnout Conversations shares a conversation with Penny Wincer.

In this episode, Penny explains why it's imperative that carers and parents take rest and how self-care is different for everyone. 

Penny is a Melbourne born, London dwelling author, speaker, podcaster, writing coach and freelance photographer. 

 As a single parent to two children she shares both the joys and tough times of being a mum and carer to a disabled child in her beautiful writing and Instagram posts.

 Her book Tender, examines the imperfect art of caring, a subject close to her heart since she has experienced being a carer in two different ways in her life. 

Penny has a busy and complicated life as she raises a neurodiverse family alongside her freelance work and creative projects. Yet, I believe we can learn so much from her, both regarding ourselves and understanding the lives of carers we may know.

Did you know… there are currently 1.3 million people in the UK providing more than 50 hours of support a week to a family member. Sadly, 61% of carers in the UK say they have suffered physical ill health due to their caring responsibilities, and 72% have said their mental health has suffered.

It's an eye-opening conversation. A must for any parent or carer to feel seen, for anyone in the caring profession and for anyone who knows a carer.

Today I'm sharing a fabulous conversation with the wonderful Sally Beaton.

Sally is a women's holistic nutritionist, life coach, speaker, author and the founder of Women With Sparkle. 

Sally teaches and supports women to tune into their body's warning signs rather than 'pushing through' through to depletion, burnout and illness.  

In this episode, Sally shares how she took charge of her health following a breast tumour and how self-care and prioritsing our daily needs is a practice we all need to do regularly... including herself!
