Supporting Employees Who Are Caregivers Reduces Burnout and Improves Retention

Employee caregiver stress doesn't stay at home.

It follows employees to work: driving burnout, absenteeism, quiet quitting, and turnover.

Yet 87% of companies exclude caregivers from their DEI strategy.

I'm Chef Maria, a corporate wellness speaker and caregiver advocate.

After 8.5 years as the primary caregiver for both of my parents, I understand how caregiving impacts focus, health, and performance.

I deliver story-driven keynotes, workshops, and trainings that empower HR, DEI, Wellness, and Benefits leaders, as well as ERGs and event planners to support employees who are caregivers. My sessions blend practical strategies with storytelling and desserts as teaching tools to make caregiving challenges relatable, actionable, and memorable.
