#142 Cut Yourself Some Slack

BREAK UP BESTIE
About this episode

Today's episode is more of a pep talk and collection of thoughts I've had recently about how we don't cut ourself enough slack especially when going through something as tough as a breakup. Recovery requires so much compassion and kindness and self love, and I see so many people being way too hard on themselves.
