Secrets of the ‘Super-Carers’
Mrs. Adler, wife of Dr. Yossi Adler, reveals that heroic caregivers also care for themselves

In this powerful and often overlooked episode of Menucha Talks, we turn the focus to the carers — the partners, family members, and friends supporting a woman struggling with a perinatal mood disorder. Mrs. Adler shares insight, perspective, and lived wisdom on what it really means to care for someone during such a challenging time.

This conversation acknowledges the emotional weight carried by those in supporting roles, highlighting the importance of self-awareness, boundaries, and self-care. Mrs. Adler reminds us that being strong for someone else does not mean ignoring your own needs — and that sustainable care starts with looking after yourself too.

Tune in to Menucha Talks for a compassionate and validating discussion for anyone supporting a loved one through perinatal mental health challenges. This is an essential listen for every “super-carer” who gives so much — and deserves support in return.
