Real Respite for Parents and Caregivers feat. Andrea Faris Roberts

For parents of disabled or medically complex children, being occupied at all times is a way of life. Even respite becomes a time to catch up on neglected chores or run errands.

As the founder and executive director of A Mother's Rest Charitable Respite Foundation, Andrea Faris Roberts uses her first-hand knowledge to provide true relaxation to caregivers in the U.S. By providing an affordable place to stay, Andrea invites mothers, fathers, and caregivers of all types to join them for 3-day retreats that offer them a place to, for once, not be needed.

Andrea joins us this episode for a break down on the barriers that keep caregivers from self-care, the benefits of finding a group that understands you, and the joys of respite without a schedule or expectations.
