Self-care has become a buzzword — but why does it still feel so hard to sustain?

Instead of adding more routines, hacks, or habits to your plate, Matthew introduces a powerful reframe: what if self-care isn’t about doing more, but about meeting your five core human needs consistently?

We unpack why motivation fades, why “doing all the right things” can still leave you exhausted, and how structure — not willpower — is what creates lasting change.

If you’ve ever felt like self-care turns into another to-do list, this conversation will feel like a reset.

Together, we explore:

• Why motivation fades and what works better
• How to build structure without burning out
• A simpler way to think about habit and behavior change
• Practical shifts you can apply immediately
