This week, Heather and Waddell flip the script and talk about what it really looks like to extend compassionate care to ourselves. After spending weeks focusing on what we pour out for others, they pause to ask: how do we refill our own cups when life and work don’t slow down?

From trial-and-error self-care, quiet moments, and creative outlets to setting boundaries, seeking therapy, and choosing to try new things, this conversation is honest, unpolished, and full of grace. It’s not about a perfect list of steps—it’s about giving yourself permission to just be and figuring out what works for you along the way.
