We're diving deep into self-care today, fam, and honestly, this conversation couldn't have come at a better time. 🙏

Just to be clear, we're not talking about the Instagram-picture-perfect-$500-investment kind of self-care.

We're talking real deal, what-works-best-for-you-not-someone-else self-care.

Our guest this week, Christy Tending, is an activist, educator, writer, and self-care mentor who helps people-pleasers like us create sustainable, anti-capitalist self-care in service of collective liberation. Dayum!

Get ready for a big ol' permission slip to own your inherent power and get a little inconvenient. 💪
