Episode description
Child psychotherapist Dr Joanna Fortune and ieParenting editor Irene Feighan talk about how parents need to prioritise their health and wellbeing.
With so many responsibilities and worries, self-care and fun can be the first things parents drop. But Fortune says looking after your own needs helps you to be the best parent that you can be.
Fortune also speaks to those struggling to cope with low stamina, isolation, and the everyday pressures that come with parenting.
