11. Why Self-Care is a Necessity, not a Luxury
Audre Lorde stated that "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation".
This week, I am joined by Avalaura Gaither, and we discuss the importance of incorporating self-care into your daily practice. We share why self-care is by no means a luxury, but a necessity for us all. Join this conversation to learn ways you can incorporate self-care into your own life!
