Caring for Yourself While Caring for Others: Managing Parental Stress and Avoiding Burnout
Welcome to our eight-part podcast series sharing key topics and insights about supporting autistic girls, women, and gender-diverse people. In this episode, we're focusing on Caring for Yourself While Caring for Others: Managing Parental Stress and Avoiding Burnout with Sarah Hayden, Mel Spencer and Cassandra Allen. Today’s conversation is an honest, compassionate look at recognising the emotional load carers carry, why typical “self-care” advice can fall short, and how we can shift the focus toward genuine, practical, and shared support. Whether you're a parent, carer, educator, or professional, we hope this episode helps you feel seen, supported, and just a little bit lighter. With thanks to the Victorian Department of Education.
