Regan Parker joins Cait Donovan on this episode of "FRIED, the Burnout Podcast" to discuss why independent work—which is gaining traction across all sectors—is especially helpful for those who are natural caregivers and nurturers.

The reason people leave the field is not because they don’t love the work. They love the work. These are people who get into it because they want to care for people. They care about keeping people healthy and safe and heard, but it’s the confines of the work structure that make it impossible for them to do that.
