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. 23- Your Mind Garden
In this episode of The JoyfulRx, we explore the metaphor of your mind as a garden—and how the thoughts you allow in shape your daily energy, focus, and emotional well-being. I’ll walk you through what it means to weed out the mental clutter and how to begin intentionally planting beliefs that support the woman and mother you’re becoming.
You'll learn:
🌱 Why your “mental soil” might be rejecting new affirmations
🌱 The secret to making your thoughts stick (hint: it’s nervous system safety)
🌱 A gentle daily practice to start cultivating peace, not pressure
This episode is especially for the mom who’s tired of trying to think positively but still feels stuck. Come learn how to grow something different—with grace and intention.
🎧 Press play, and let’s start tending to your inner landscape.

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.
