About this episode
Isabel Melgarejo discusses burnout and self-care for women caregivers with wellness coach Jessica Rich.
What if success didn’t have to cost your peace? In this episode of A Time to Care: The Caregivers Podcast , Isabel sits down with wellness coach Jessica Rich to talk about something many caregivers silently struggle with: burnout, pressure, and the belief that we must always carry everyone else first. Jessica shares her journey from senior corporate leadership to redefining success on her own terms — walking away from burnout, setting boundaries, and creating a life rooted in harmony instead of hustle. Together, we explore: Why high-achieving women burn out How to set boundaries without guilt (even with family) What “capacity” really means The power of rest and disconnection How travel and new experiences support emotional healing Why caregivers deserve support too If you’re tired of being the strong one all the time, this conversation will feel like permission to breathe. You don’t have to carry everything alone. To contact Jessica: Coaching Website: www.jessicarichcoaching.com Travel Website: icmtravelexperiences.com Instagram: @coachjessicarich
