Vicarious Trauma & Self-Care

In the latest episode of The Cocoon podcast, we meet Lorna and Tasha. With Ruby, they discuss who they are, what life volunteering for the Institute is like, and then they get into vicarious trauma and how they genuinely self-care as a result of what they hear and learn volunteering. If you are someone others turn to for support, you will gain from listening to this. Self-care and support structures are vital when you care about other people. And just knowing that listening to someone makes supporting others so much easier. It will make the world of difference to the person you hold space for. The best thing though, is that all of this is discussed with humour, humility and authenticity. If you are in need of immediate assistance, please reach out 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732).
