About this episode

Books by Brianna ➝ https://shopc.at/holding-you-back

In this episode, we discuss the difference between what it really means to take care of yourself, and the ever-popular consumerism version of "self-care," and how it's actually just a means of avoiding the real problems in our lives. In the end, real self-care is the choice to build a life we do not need to escape from.
