Description
Drivin’ While Compassion Fatigued
In our season 2 premier, we ride along with Charelle, a ball of energy and a self-described caretaker in both her private and professional life. Having just left her job at a human service agency, Charelle describes the compassion fatigue that can plague people who are accustomed to giving. She feels like a burden when she asks for help. Sound familiar? Come along on a journey that takes us from crying in the car to whether immigrants should have a quick path to driver’s licensing.
