It examines the unexpected sense of relief that can come with the end of caregiving—an emotion that is normal and even expected. The episode highlights that this relief is not a lack of love, but rather a result of the emotional exhaustion caregivers often experience. Through personal stories and expert insights, listeners will learn that this feeling is an act of love and an essential part of the healing process. The episode offers compassion and understanding for those navigating grief and caregiving. Please consider leaving us a review on iTunes and Spotify and following us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
