100% Guilt-Free Self-Care

Show notes: https://www.tamihackbarth.com/blog/episode-216

I've got moms on the brain. Yesterday was the 9th anniversary of my mom's death and I am so bummed she isn't here to see how well I am doing, how much my daughter is growing and how the world is changing for the better. She would 100% be my biggest cheerleader in my work.

I even talked a lot about moms in this week's podcast. I interviewed Calvina Nguyen of Your Brand Spark. Calvina was born in China and moved to the US when she was 9, which brought a whole new conversation around self-care and one immigrant family's experience.

In her professional life, Calvina runs Your Brand Spark, a creative agency that educates small businesses in design and branding while helping them build a solid visual brand foundation that empowers them to connect with the right audience and grow a thriving business.

I hope you'll listen to my interview with Calvina.

How are you this late winter transitioning into spring?

This week in my Facebook group I asked what magazines people read when they were in their teens and early 20s. Turns out a lot of us read Seventeen. Lots of others read Sassy and Jane. Ms. Magazine, Bitch, Bust got some shoutouts and even the ever-nerdy Utne Reader.

Those magazines helped us feel less alone. We could find out what other GenXers or Millennials across the country were doing, thinking, and feeling. We found parts of ourselves in those pages.

I asked because in this week's podcast, I interviewed Jen Cooper, the founder of Jennifer Magazine.

In this week's podcast, Maureen Paley of the Financial Autonomy for Women podcast and I got a chance to talk about all things money and self-care.

Money is a touchy topic for a lot of women. Given our very recent history of being able to have credit in our own names, loans without a male co-signer, and the ability to purchase property to build generational wealth, it makes perfect sense that we struggle when it comes to money.

This, coupled with the societal and cultural narratives about self-care being selfish, we've got a lot of things to talk about!

In this week's podcast, I got a chance to interview Joann Crohn from No Guilt Mom.

All this rain in Northern California has reminded me that we are still six weeks out from spring and my urge to curl up with my cat, a blanket and a book make total sense. No need to rush because spring will be here soon enough.

Over in my Facebook group I asked everyone what is saving your life this week. The answers were varied and I got some great ideas for my own list.

In this week's podcast, I am sharing What Is Saving My Life.

During this time of year, I let myself rest while I ponder what I want in the new year. This time of year I am all about laying the foundation for the year by day dreaming and planting seeds. Later in the spring when there is more light and action energy I will get to making those dreams into reality.

In other words, a slow start to a new year still allows plenty of time for reaching goals and changing habits.

In this week's podcast, I am sharing 3 happiness-boosting exercises that take 2 minutes because even in winter, there is room for some happiness.

I don't know about you, but my 2023 was HARD.

People I love were displaced by flooding, tree damage and other consequences from historic weather events. I had so many health related issues that came with pain and we had way more sickness than usual.

It felt like one thing after another, so I am happy to have a fresh start. Even though I believe we can hit reset any time, 2023 felt like it needed a hard reset.

In this week's podcast, I am sharing seven reminders to myself you can borrow if you need to as we start the new year.
