Join Linda, B and Jo for this episode where we start to unpack why taking care of ourselves is important. We talk about how weird it is to imagine all the things we used to do before the pandemic, reflecting on how jam packed our days and weeks were. Now going to the grocery store feels so energy consuming!
Your hosts reflect on what this means for them in their lives and reflect on what's been working for them to help get through the shitstorm we know as the pandemic (those history books are going to be wild when we look back at this). We dive a little deeper into understanding how the fight/flight/freeze response affects our coping, reflect on how damn bad ass we all are, talk about the hit mental health has taken, reflect on why hustle culture and productivity can impact us, and dissect what the difference is between coping and self-care and why they ARE NOT the same.
REMEMBER: what works for us might not work for you and everyone is at a different point in their journeys, so please always listen to yourself and your needs & any professional advice given to you. This is not meant to give you advice but rather help normalize any experience you might be feeling, give you some context on why maybe things feel the way they do, and give you some ideas.
