Let’s talk about self care. How good are you at it?

If you’re like the majority of moms, the answer is clear. We’re not good at it! In fact, a joint survey done by HealthyWomen and Working Mother, reports that 78% of moms say they put off taking care of their own health because they’re too busy looking after the needs of their loved ones.

I’d like to say I’m shocked, but I too have been in that 78% (although I am actively working on creating a better balance).

And that very large number is why I was so excited to have Suzanne Falter on as my guest this week. She has been writing on the topic of joy for nearly a decade and is well versed in helping women carve out a self care practice for themselves.

Suzanne’s essays have appeared in O Magazine, The New York Times, Elephant Journal, Tiny Buddha and Thrive Global among others. Her non-fiction work includes the Joy Series books and The Extremely Busy Woman’s Guide to Self Care. She also hosts the podcast Self-Care for Extremely Busy Women.

Her story is heartbreaking and inspiring and we talk about her recovery from a devastating year and how self care helped her heal.

Her passion shines through, but I love how real Suzanne is. She walks the walk and it was refreshing to get her perspective on some of my struggles that I am sure you can relate to as well.
