JoyfulRx Podcast
The act of caring for others is rewarding in many ways, but it can also be overwhelming and exhausting, resulting in caregivers feeling stressed, unhappy, guilty and burnt out.
Whether you are looking after children, a partner, patients, ageing parents or persons at the end of their life journey, this is your reminder that you cannot pour from an empty cup. You can serve others without sacrificing yourself. The JoyfulRx podcast is your prescription for rediscovering your own inner joy, so you can serve others from your overflow, rather than your reserve tank.
Hosted by Dr. Michelle Welch, a practicing physician, mother, children’s book author, and certified mindset coach. She presents topics each week that impact caregivers specifically and offers actionable steps and tools to help them rediscover themselves, reconnect with joy and create their best lives, starting today.

Ep 10 - Caregiving shouldn't be your identity
"Caregiving is part of your life, but it is not the whole story. You are a multifaceted, multipassionate, dynamic person with passions, dreams, and joys that deserve attention. It’s time to start nurturing those parts of yourself too—because when you do, you’ll not only find more joy in caregiving, but more joy in life."
If you are a female caregiver who has lost yourself in caring for others, know that it is not too late to rediscover or ev redefine yourself. I can guide you through my simple framework which will help you do just that!

Caring for others—whether in your personal or professional life—can be deeply fulfilling, but it also comes with its challenges. The weight of constant caregiving can leave even the most dedicated among us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and burned out. Too often, societal and cultural norms reinforce the idea that sacrificing ourselves is the price of being a “good” caregiver.
But here’s the truth: you cannot pour from an empty cup. You deserve to care for others without losing yourself in the process.
