Part 1: Be Kind to Yourself

When the world keeps showing us injustice, violence and oppression —  caring for yourself (your body, your emotions, your nervous system) becomes necessary.

In the first episode of this powerful series, I share:

• HOW I've been deepening my self‑care over the past year — not because I necessarily wanted to, but because life has required it. I walk you through my real personal examples of what it's looked like to deepen my self-care, instead of sabotaging.
• HOW: after decades of coping with emotional eating, stress eating and self‑sabotage — I am now able to chose something different. Practices that actually support me.
• WHY being kind to yourself (self‑kindness) matters so much right now: because our nervous systems are already on high alert. Harsh self‑criticism only activates more stress, while compassion and kindness stabilize, soothe, and create emotional safety.

Listen In and Walk Away With:

• A deeper understanding for exactly how deeper self‑care isn't a luxury, it's essential — especially when there's more that you're processing, navigating and holding.
• Permission to BE KIND to yourself — and to stop treating yourself like a machine, especially when life is demanding so much.
• A model for compassionate coping that doesn't rely on food, numbing, or self‑sabotage — but on intentional practices and deeper care.
• Emotional safety: knowing that you're not alone, that fear and grief are valid — and you deserve care, kindness, and real support as you navigate this time.

This isn't self-care fluff.
It's much needed medicine.

Press play.
Give yourself the care and support you deserve.
