When I ask caregivers what the one thing they’d like to change is – physical health is at the top of that list for many. That is why I invited Stephanie Burns onto the Show. Stephanie has a degree in Physical and Health Education and runs Burns Fitness. She and her husband have 4 kids, 2 with neurodiverse needs. On top of that, she undertook a program to lose 100 pounds and get fit. So she gets it.
Stephanie also talks about the reality of having kids and the effect not being in good health can have on caregiving. She gives ideas on incorporating all this with a busy household and kids with neurodiverse needs. She also gives you a five-point plan to follow and a piece of wise advice on what to say when you are in the trenches and might be hard on yourself.
I know she is good at what she does because Tara and I are in her program. And because she has been in the trenches, I wanted her to share her knowledge with you.
