This episode is for all the moms out there!  Self-care is something that takes a conscious effort and should never be taken for granted. That's why I interviewed Asherah Eden, a women’s self-care mentor, to weigh in on the conversation. She helps women honor their big emotions while reclaiming their beauty and power, so that they can have the impact they are meant to make in the world. And what other impact is greater than being able to parent our children? Right? 

Find out about small steps you can take to honor the importance of being in tune with your own mind and body, and your own self care, so that you can better serve your child.

In this episode, I want to address the issue of parental burnout. Did you know that this is a real thing? Do you know the signs and most importantly do you know how to cope with the burnout? Well, there is a very simple and practical way to relieve this type of stress and it’s something you are well aware of, which is self-care.

I know! I know! You have heard it before, but this episode is not here to tell you all about self-care, it’s to keep you inspired to want to take time out for yourself and see the importance in doing so. In this episode, I wanted to do something a little different by asking 4 different individuals this question: "What is one thing that every parent should do to practice self-care?"

Each perspective brings something quite different to the conversation and will hopefully spark motivation to take time for yourself - guilt free. Plus, you will learn the signs of parental burnout and what you can do to cope. So listen now because you don't want to miss out on gaining more tools to be a better parent - a better you!

In this episode, Jessika interviews Dr. LaTanya Bowman, a chiropractic physician in order to take a deeper dive into understanding the important role that chiropractic medicine can play in the physical care and injury prevention for your student athlete! Did you know that young people are more prone to be injured because they’re still growing, are less coordinated, and are more likely to overestimate their abilities.

No matter the age, many injuries happen due to preventable factors, such as overuse/repetitive strain, starting a new sport after being inactive, not warming up, poor technique, or even wearing the wrong shoes.

And this is why it is so important for athletes to be seen regularly by a chiropractor. Not only does it have lifetime benefits, but it also assists them with performing at their best to give them better opportunities to thrive at the next level of their sports careers!

Dr. LaTanya Bowman is a Chiropractic Physician and Owner of Discovery Chiropractic and Wellness Center, PLLC located in Charlotte, NC.
