Ep. 50- When Self-Care Gets Real: Beyond Bubble Baths & Checklists
Description
Self-care isn’t always a spa day or a bubble bath. Sometimes, it’s letting someone else cook dinner, saying no to plans, or simply allowing yourself five minutes of silence without guilt.
In this episode of Boundaries Unleashed, we’re exploring what it really means to practice self-care in integrity — versus falling into performative or conditioned self-care that looks good on the outside but drains you on the inside.
Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:
The difference between integrity-based self-care and performative “shoulds.”
Tricky but powerful forms of self-care (like asking for help, financial boundaries, and unapologetic rest).
How self-care shapes your energy, time, and relationships.
Three ways to make sure your self-care is actually restorative and intentional.
✨ Reflection questions for you this week:
Where in your life are you practicing self-care from a place of “should” instead of true need?
What’s one small way you could shift that into integrity this week?
Your self-care doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. The only thing that matters is: does it restore you?
👉 If this episode resonated, share it with a friend who could use a fresh take on self-care.
