  • 5: Self-Care
    “Give the best of you, not what’s left of you.”
    This year has been a whirlwind and reminder of how quickly life can change. Although there are so many things that seem out of our control, taking care of ourselves shouldn’t be one of them. While some might misconstrue self-care as selfish, it is far from that. In fact, the most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves. In this episode, Chels, Shay and Vi end the year with a discussion on the importance of self preservation and ways they refresh the mind, body and soul.
