It’s a serious condition that affects anyone finding themselves in a helping or caregiving role. This episode of In Sickness had the privilege of speaking with three of the authors – Peter Dudley, Antoinette LeCouteur, Tammy Hurst - of the extraordinary book, Relit. It’s a collection of essays by individuals engaged in a “heart-based role” who succumbed to the eventual care inertia. Think the heart writ large. To learn more, go to insickness.org.
