BEE #151: Self-Care Beyond the Mirror: F...

About this episode

Message me with comments or questions

What does real self-care look like? For years, I silently judged people who focused on their appearance—thinking it was shallow or vain. But a recent experience completely shifted my perspective.

In this episode, I share how I went from dismissing appearance-based self-care to realizing that true confidence comes from honoring both the internal and external parts of who we are. From my journey with hormone replacement therapy to a Halo laser treatment that sparked the comment, “You’re 57, by now you should just be okay with it”—I’ll unpack the moment that changed everything for me.

Self-care isn’t just bubble baths or meditation, and it isn’t just skincare or workouts. It’s about choosing practices—inside and out—that make you feel strong, confident, and aligned with your values. When we stop labeling certain types of care as “shallow” and others as “worthy,” we free ourselves to create resilience and self-trust that radiates through every area of life.

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s “okay” to care about how you look—or questioned whether you’re doing self-care the “right” way—this episode will give you the permission you’ve been waiting for.
