The Importance of Self Care That Actually Works
In this episode of the Needy Podcast, I return after a year-long hiatus to discuss the essence of self-care that truly supports individual needs. I talk about my upcoming free workshop titled 'Self Care That Actually Works' scheduled for September 25th.
I differentiate my approach to self-care from the prescriptive methods often sold online, emphasizing the need for responsive and present self-care practices. I share my personal journey of developing a self-care routine that helps me meet life's demands in a sustainable way, such as waking up early to watch the sunrise and engaging in varied physical activities.
The discussion highlights the importance of creating routines that are adaptable to one's current emotional and physical state, ultimately aiming to provide a framework for showing up fully and compassionately for oneself.

Is it possible to have a relationship with our children that is mutually respectful? How do we push against societal messages saying that being a parent means having no needs?
In today’s episode, Jen Lumanlan, the founder of "Your Parenting Mojo," is here to share her wisdom on meeting our needs and those of our children. Together, we delve into the delicate balance between safety and autonomy as parents, exploring how to set boundaries that respect our own needs while honoring our children's independence.
Jen is a researcher, parenting coach, and author. After becoming a parent, she went back to school for a masters in education and psychology focusing on child development to better understand why parents and children face the challenges they do. Her podcast (named the best research-based parenting podcast by LifeHacker) and new book, “Parenting Beyond Power” discuss the societal influences that make parenting hard and why we shouldn’t see problems as individual failings.
