This episode of Carers' Experience is about setting boundaries and carer identity. Tania interviews Michelle Meachem to discuss how they've both set boundaries in their life and ensure that they carve out time for their own livelihoods. Michelle highlights the importance of 'putting your carer house in order'. Tania and Michelle also shed light on an important yet underrepresented topic- the transition to stepping away from caring.
