Episode 33

Ever wonder how to balance the demands of parenthood while still prioritising self-care? Struggling to find a minute for yourself amidst a whirlwind of responsibilities? Let me introduce you to our latest guest, Kate Flowerdew - a wellbeing specialist and the mastermind behind the Self-Care Accelerator for busy moms. Kate sheds light on the utmost importance of self-care for parents, particularly primary caregivers, and we discuss what self-care actually is and how to have it as parents.

This is the perfect episode for any parent trying to implement self-care in their schedule. We deep dive into everything self-care, from why it's important to prioritise, what are the fundamentals, what are the specifics, and how to balance it when our schedules change like in the holidays. But don't fret if this all sounds a bit overwhelming! Kate tells us about the 80-20 rule for sticking to a schedule and the ultimate importance of rest and honesty over all. Finally, we delve into the treasure trove that is the Self-Care Accelerator. We explore the course offerings, membership programs, and how many have found it useful.

So, kickback, relax, and join us as we navigate the world of self-care for parents. Your journey towards better self-care starts here!
