We’re kicking off a new cycle on the Healing Her Story podcast with a deep and timely exploration of care—who gives it, who receives it, and what it costs us all.

Inspired by Cancer season and its nurturing, mothering energy, this episode invites you to reflect on how care lives in your own body and your daily life. Using recent research from the National Partnership for Women & Families, we unpack just how much unpaid care women provide each year—over $1 trillion in value, yet often invisible and unacknowledged.

If you’re a woman who:

• Has felt the pressure to keep giving, even when your cup is empty
• Struggles to rest or put yourself first
• Feels unseen for the emotional labor and caretaking you do at home or work
• Is reckoning with emotional neglect, generational wounds, or your own desire to become a mother…

Then this episode is for you.

We talk about the roots of this imbalance, including how patriarchal systems and gendered stereotypes continue to undervalue care—and the way this shows up in your body, your nervous system, your calendar, and your inner dialogue. This isn’t just about social justice; it’s about your personal healing.

You’ll also hear:

• A story about Riva’s experience working in the care economy
• A powerful reflection on self-integrity and giving yourself the care you offer others
• Thought-provoking journal questions to explore your own relationship to care

🤲🏼 Reflection questions include:

• Do you see the caretaking you do as work? As valuable?
• Do you feel obligated to care for others at the expense of yourself?
• Is it easier to care for others than it is to care for yourself?

This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and begin reclaiming care as sacred, vital, and worthy.

🎧 Tune in now and join the movement of women rising to reclaim the value of care—in our homes, in our communities, and in ourselves.
