In this episode, “Self-Care Isn’t Selfish—It’s a Necessity: Incorporating Self-Care Into Your Daily Life as a Black Parent of an Adult Child with Autism,” I sit down with Krystal Reddick, self-care coach and founder of Total Life Care Coaching, to discuss the importance of self-care for Black parents of adult children with autism. With the constant demands of caring for our children, self-care often feels impossible, leaving us exhausted and burned out.
Krystal shares practical strategies for integrating self-care into even the busiest routines, along with budget-friendly ideas to make it accessible. Discover simple ways to reclaim your energy and prioritize your well-being. We’ll also discuss how chronic stress can lead to serious health issues if self-care is neglected.
