Caregiver Burnout and the Cost of “Doing It All” with Tammy Lautner

In this episode of The Holly Penney Show, Holly sits down with Tammy Lautner, CEO & Founder of Peace of Mind Consulting, social worker, caregiver advocate, and “on-call daughter” to her own parents. With over 20 years of experience supporting older adults and their families, Tammy brings both expertise and lived perspective to the caregiving conversation.

Together, Holly and Tammy dive into:

• Why caregivers so often go unseen, and the ripple effect this has on their wellbeing.
• Early signs of burnout and why it’s much more than “just stress.”
• Reframing self-care as self-compassion—and why that shift matters for caregivers and entrepreneurs alike.
• How boundaries, humor, and community support are essential for surviving (and thriving) in caregiving and business.
• The power of showing up for others without waiting to be asked.
  
  

Tammy’s story is a reminder that caregiving isn’t just about the person receiving care, it’s also about valuing and supporting the ones giving it.

Tune in to hear practical advice, heartfelt stories, and the encouragement every caregiver and woman in business needs.
