Welcome to this week’s ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed. 

How do we set boundaries and protect our own needs, while showing up for the people we love and being a good friend? For people-pleasers, that balance feels impossible. But this week, we're throwing it back to a helpful perspective shift from psychotherapist Kristina Virro on how to prioritize your needs while still being considerate of others with the "my needs, your needs, our needs" framework. 

Kristina is a Registered Psychotherapist and Holistic Nutritionist, who is dedicated to reducing stigma around mental health and helping people learn effective strategies to feel less stuck and more empowered. She provides psychotherapy and nutritional counselling at her wellness clinic, Fresh Insight, and she has shared her expertise with major outlets like CP24, Canadian Living, and Global News Live. You might have seen her on social media, where she’s amassed over 100,000 followers on TikTok for her no-bullshit real talk about therapy and mental health.
