Finding and keeping hobbies isn’t always easy. Somewhere along the way, many of us traded the things that once brought us joy for endless work, hustle culture, or just survival mode. In this episode of Unfiltered Yaps, I share what it looks like to reclaim hobbies as a form of self-care: the joy, the healing, and the reminder that you are more than your productivity.

We’ll talk about your answers to “What hobbies have you discovered that feel surprisingly therapeutic or healing, and why?”, the surprising ways coloring, gardening, baking, and even gaming can nourish your soul, my own journey of rediscovering reading, cozy gaming, and going back to the movies after burnout, and this week’s journal prompt to help you reflect on what truly lights you up simply for the joy of doing it.
