“Empowering lives through rest, healing, and connection. Together, we find strength.”
Wander and Rest Life
About Us
At Wander and Rest Life, we support people living with fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and fatigue—especially parents and primary caregivers who are also raising neurodivergent children. We don’t provide services for children directly; instead, our focus is on the caregivers themselves, recognising the unique pressures of managing both chronic illness and caregiving responsibilities.
We know the pace of the world can be unforgiving for bodies and minds that need time, care, and gentleness. That’s why everything we do is designed to be practical, low-energy-friendly, and mindful of sensory needs—rooted in lived experience and a deep commitment to compassionate care.
Through our work, we:
- Develop accessible tools, from rest rituals to tailored meal plans and sensory-friendly wellness guides
- Share real stories and guidance through our blog, offering both encourage and empower
- Celebrate small businesses and practitioners supporting the chronic illness community through our Small Business Spotlight
- Connect our community with trusted professionals, such as trauma-informed therapy and holistic nutrition support through our collaborations
Wander and Rest Life is not just here to inform—it’s here to walk with you. Together, we are building a community where you can find resources that fit your life, recognition for your challenges, and a reminder that you are never alone.
“Since launching, we’ve supported over 70 individuals, built a growing community of 20 members, and connected with over 1,000+ people across social media. Our reach is growing — and our hearts are too.”

“Where personal Journey Inspire Collective Healing“
Founders Story
“Wander and Rest Life began with a journey — my journey. Living with fibromyalgia and navigating the emotional and physical challenges of chronic pain taught me the power of rest, resilience, and community. I created Wander and Rest Life not just to share my story, but to build a space where others feel seen, supported, and empowered. Our community is rooted in lived experience and inspired by the belief that healing happens when we walk together.”
Our Mission
Wander and Rest Life is a community built on understanding, connection, and hope. We support those living with fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and the daily challenges that come with them. We also shed light on the unique journey of parents who navigate life with a chronic illness while caring for children or adults with special needs, including autism. Through shared stories, resources, and encouragement, we believe that rest is strength, healing is possible, and no one has to walk this path alone.
