About this listen
Social media makes self care look easy, beautiful, and unattainable. What if we could release the aesthetic of perfection and half-ass our self care instead? In this episode, we explore practical, low-stakes approaches to several evidence-based self care practices: journaling, gratitude, meditation, and creativity. If you’re skeptical of self care, or despair of finding time or energy for self care activities, this conversation is for you!
