Episode 8: Self-care Isn't Selfish with Joy Coach, Mentor, & WFH Special Needs Mom Amanda Trojan

A self care deficit existed before the pandemic and it certainly hasn't gotten any better! Self care is for everyone, and special needs parents definitely need it as many of us are without respite care.   I'm joined by Joy Coach, Mentor, and special needs mom Amanda Trojan in Episode 8 of the Confessions from the Couch podcast. 

We're talking about self care examples for special needs parents, families with both neurotypical and atypical children (which we both have!), and work from home families.   Amanda opens up about the self care benefits she's experienced as a work from home mom and shares some of her personal self care activities. Self care is not selfish and it is something we all need to engage in.
