"Don't let the wellness bullies stop you from working on yourself!" 

In this episode, Izzy tells you how tired she is of so-called "wellness gurus" painting unrealistic expectations to everyday people. You don't have to spend tons of money to start your healing journey. You can heal from your living room, write in a journal, hang out with friends, talk to a therapist, etc.

There are EIGHT elements of wellness and everyone has one area they lean towards to the most. Wellness looks different for everyone. What does it look like for you? How do you feel about wellness after 25 episodes?
