THE MYTON Hospices has launched its own podcast.
Care Within Care has been created to explore the unique emotional challenges faced by those working and volunteering in the hospice sector.
Hosted by Myton’s employee and volunteer wellbeing co-ordinator, Emily Young, and self-help author, Donna Higton, the podcast offers a compassionate and honest look at the pressures that come with caring for people towards the end of life, and how the charity, which has hospices in Coventry, Rugby and Warwick, can support those who do this vital work.
Each episode delves into topics such as burnout, grief fatigue, emotional resilience, and navigating boundaries in emotionally demanding environments. The podcast combines real-world insights with practical self-help tools, mindset strategies and stories from those on the frontline of hospice care.
This initiative is part of Myton’s ongoing commitment to prioritising the wellbeing of their people – providing accessible, meaningful support not just for their own staff and volunteers, but for anyone working in palliative care. Each episode is delivered in bitesize chunks to make it easier for busy people to access support whenever and wherever they need it.
Emily said: “I’m so excited about this brand new podcast, which is all about helping people working in hospice care to manage their wellbeing. At Myton, it is incredibly important that we support the emotional needs of our staff and volunteers – and this podcast is one way we’re doing that. We hope it will also provide support to people working in other hospices across the UK and beyond.”
Donna added: “It’s a real privilege to co-host this podcast alongside Emily and to offer something that supports the wellbeing of those who give so much to others. I’m particularly excited to bring my knowledge, expertise and background to the podcast – drawing on mindset tools, compassion-based practices and emotional resilience techniques to help people feel seen and supported in their everyday lives.”
Care Within Care is available to stream now on Spotify.
