6. Introducing The Self-Care Series

Our Wildest Dreams by Brittany Pollard

This episode is the start of a juicy thread I’ll be doing over the next few weeks. With us working to reclaim own voices, spaces, and existence it’s only fitting to begin with what I consider to be a basic human need in today’s society, self-care. Self care is one of those buzz-words that is consistently thrown around and presented as bubble baths, green smoothies, sunsets, doing yoga, going on retreats and just really treating yourself to a fancy or luxurious reward for working hard or overcoming something stressful. It’s presented as this indulgent thing we need to do in order to feel worthy about ourselves but that’s not the full truth.

Inside this episode, I talk about:

• What self-care is and how it’s vital to our existence.
• How saying “No” to others means saying “yes” to ourselves.
• How self-care is a practice needed in every single area of our lives.
• Sometimes self care is extremely hard, but it leads us to healing.
• Exercises to start your self care practice.

The Everyday Intentions podcast removes the overwhelm of change and highlights how to navigate the “in between” moments of our current reality vs. our dreams through storytelling, humor, and present day life situations. Each week consists of stories, told by real people, in the midst of transforming their lives through small, daily intentions. Whether it’s making a huge change for the tenth time or choosing to believe in ourselves for the first time, our intentions make all the difference.
