Cancer and Compassion Fatigue: Giving Yourself Permission to Step Back
In this episode of Campfires of Hope, cancer survivors Janna Jones and Eileen VanCleave open up about the deeply human experience of compassion fatigue. We explore what it is, why acknowledging it matters, and how it affects survivors, caregivers, and those in helping roles. Janna and Eileen offer heartfelt insights on self-care, forgiveness, and the power of sharing the load. This candid conversation is a powerful reminder that stepping back is not a weakness—it’s a sometimes necessary act of strength.
