Buzzwords aside, healing and actual self-care are so much more than taking bubble baths and having a productive morning routine. Taking a hard look at yourself and how you truly show up is often full of unpleasant surprises. As they say, the truth hurts and admitting to ways in which you have let yourself or the people you love down, takes immense strength and courage. 

Whether you have already started healing wounds from your past or are thinking of starting to take proper care of yourself overall - this episode is a window into the harsh realities we face when doing so. In this week's episode, Aria paints a very real and authentic picture of the whole truth of working on yourself, not just the fun, easily marketable and light stuff.

This episode focuses on having a balance between your personal life and work. After the year we have had as a collective, it has become abundantly clear that Hustle Culture and a capitalistic approach to life are not only dated but don't guarantee financial safety.

Aria has been working for half of her life and speaks about changes she has made with how she approaches work over the years. As someone who once worked 70+ hours a week and has cut her time spent working for money in half, she details the impact it has had on her life overall. As a woman and a POC it has been challenging for Aria to be paid fairly or even equally, and setting boundaries at work is the first step in taking your power back when it comes to compensation. Having time to take care of oneself, to learn, to enrich your life with experiences and participate in community, are what promote joy and fulfillment. Aria is an avid spokesperson for working smarter, not harder, and hopes this episode gives you the courage to set boundaries at work and make sure you are being compensated fairly.
