As caregivers, we give everything to our kids—but where does that leave us? Burnt out, exhausted, and running on fumes. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t even know where to start when it comes to your own health, this episode is for you.
I’m talking with Fraser Bridgeman, a fellow CTNNB1 mom and a functional integrative health practitioner, about the small but powerful changes we can make to support our own well-being. Fraser understands the unique challenges rare disease caregivers face—chronic stress, poor sleep, inflammation, and running on adrenaline for years at a time. She’s sharing practical, realistic ways to prioritize your health so you can show up for your child without running yourself into the ground.
In this episode, we discuss:
✨ The most common health issues caregivers face (and how stress affects the gut, sleep, and hormones)
✨ How to make small, sustainable changes—even when you’re overwhelmed
✨ Easy food swaps to support energy, gut health, and stress resilience
✨ Practical ways to improve sleep and manage cortisol levels
✨ How movement, breathwork, and mindfulness can help regulate a taxed nervous system
✨ The mindset shift that will help you prioritize your own health without guilt
Listen now and take the first step toward caring for yourself—because you matter, too.
