We are not talking digestive health today… we are talking the sh*t you talk to yourself! While Maddy was exposed to self-help earlier on in life, it took Spencer until last year to fully embrace the concept of positive self-talk (with the help of Sean McDevitt as we shout him out in this episode). We've battled our own inner critics and we want to share with you how to treat yourself with more love and compassion while on this journey we call life.
