Balancing Care and Self: Setting Boundaries After Trauma

Failing to set healthy boundaries will result in compassion, fatigue and burnout.
Imagine being a caregiver, family member, or spouse to someone who's been through trauma. It's a tough gig, right? You're constantly giving, but what happens when you start feeling drained? In this episode of The REBOOT Recovery Show, host Evan Owens dives into the tricky but essential topic of setting boundaries and expectations after trauma. Without these, compassion fatigue and burnout are almost inevitable. But how do you strike that balance between helping others and taking care of yourself?
Evan and his guests share their experiences and strategies for having those crucial conversations that set healthy boundaries. They discuss the importance of clear communication, recognizing the signs that boundaries are needed, and the benefits of a strong support network. The episode also touches on the unique challenges faced by veterans and first responders, where trust plays a huge role in the healing process.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving or wondered how to support someone without losing yourself in the process, this episode offers practical advice and heartfelt stories that might just be the lifeline you need.
