Imagine being the rock for others while barely staying afloat yourself. In this episode of Recovery Unscripted, host David Condos chats with Katie Myers, CEO of Talbott Recovery, about the ethics and importance of self-care for those in the behavioral healthcare field. Myers dives into how crucial it is for caregivers to recharge their own batteries to provide the best care for their patients.
She candidly discusses the struggles of implementing a culture of self-care, including dealing with burnout and vicarious trauma.

Vulnerability and honesty, she argues, are key to maintaining one's well-being. Plus, you'll hear about the transformative power of personal storytelling in the healing process.
