This guided meditation invites you to come home to yourself, offering a quiet space to ground your energy when life feels overwhelming.

• Taking time for yourself doesn't require anything fancy—just a few minutes and willingness to be present
• Guided breathing exercise helps anchor you to the present moment
• Letting thoughts pass like clouds while returning focus to your breath
• Permission to hit pause anytime without needing anyone's approval
• The simple act of returning to yourself is returning to your power

Check out our episode titled "Letting Go Finding Inner Peace" which pairs beautifully with today's meditation.

We’ve been sold a version of self-care that looks good on Instagram—but often leaves us feeling even more burnt out.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what self-care really means, what it absolutely isn’t, and why so many of us confuse survival mode with restoration. Spoiler alert: if your “self-care” still leaves you exhausted, it’s not care—it’s another performance.

We’ll unpack:

• Why self-care is rooted in feminine energy, not hustle
• How to stop using bubble baths to bandage burnout
• The subtle difference between self-preservation and self-nourishment
• And 4 ways to bring intentional, honest self-care into your everyday life

This isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence.
Because when you learn to care for yourself from a place of wholeness (not pressure), everything shifts.

In this heartfelt follow-up to one of my most listened-to episodes, we go deeper—because letting go is just the beginning.

Today, we’re unpacking the power of presence, the weight of unspoken expectations, and the courage it takes to ask for help and actually receive it. If you’ve ever questioned your worth when you're not busy, productive, or the “strong one” for everyone else… this episode is for you.

You’ll hear truths about:

• The guilt we carry after asking for help
• Why rest feels like rebellion in a hustle culture
• How to trust your impact even when no one says “thank you”
• And how you’ve been seen and valued in ways you never realized

You were never invisible—you were just growing in the quiet.
