Why self-compassion is more important than self-care
Show Notes

The term self-care make me cringe. Especially when its used with a hasthag: #selfcare. 

In this episode I discuss the fundamental issues with self care and offer a perspective on self-compassion and why this is so much more important for us.

  • Why is self-care sometimes unattainable
  • The guilt surrounding self-care
  • What is self-compassion
  • My main priorities for self-care and why I believe it's vital. 
  • And so much more
