116 What Self-Care Really Means - And Why You’re Probably Getting It Wrong
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Self-care has been sold to us as bubble baths, face masks, and "treat yourself" moments. But real self-care? It's the unglamorous, consistent work of choosing yourself — even when you're tired, even when it's inconvenient, even when nobody's watching.
In this co-hosted episode, Becca and guest co-host Amy Stackhouse break down what self-care actually is across five key domains: physical, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual. You'll hear why most of us resist the real thing (hint: it has everything to do with worthiness), the difference between self-care and self-indulgence, and how to run a simple self-care baseline audit to know exactly where to start.
If you've ever felt guilty for taking care of yourself — or felt like self-care was something other people did — this episode is for you.
