  • The Secret to Morning Routines
    As we start to transition from Summer to Fall, our days may start to look different, our schedules may start to shift, and it’s very important to stay intentional about how you show up for yourself. Lately a lot of self-care talk has been focused on morning routines. I agree that they are a really necessary part of your self-care routine, but they aren’t the most important piece of the puzzle! 
     
    Join me for today’s episode where we are having a conversation about:
     
    Adjusting our self-care routines when our days shift
    The most important time to be intentional about your morning routine, and it might not be when you think
    A sweet spot of your day that influences your energy
    Giving ourselves permission to experiment with different morning routine ideas and actions
    Not taking our routines so seriously
    How each part of your day is intertwined
     
    Let me know if you enjoyed today’s free flow conversational chat style. Life is all about adventure and experimentation so I showed up to this episode a little differently. 
     
    Make sure to share this podcast episode with anyone who needs a little encouragement with their self-care, and remember the best morning routine is the one that supports you and sets you up for an amazing day!

  • Birthdays & Human Design
    Just as it’s so important to celebrate with self-care, it’s important to also celebrate Y-O-U and what makes you, you. In today’s episode, we’re celebrating my birthday and we’re talking about Human Design, what it is, how it pertains to your birth, and how it’s such a unique tool to use in your self-care.

  • What do you WANT to do?
    This is a quick episode based off of a quote that someone sent me and asked if I could do a podcast about it. Of course I said Yes! Listen in to hear the quote shared with me and how it reminded me of another quote. Both of them call us out (lovingly) about how we put our self-care on our to-do lists.
    I’m also inviting you to sign up for my newest free offering..mini Human Design readings!
    I’m so intrigued by the Human Design system and I want to share it with you. These mini readings are free until my birthday (8/17) so head to the link in my IG bio @iamkathleenleslie to schedule or go to https://calendly.com/kathleenleslie

    my biggest pet peeve when it comes to self-care

  • From Dark to Light, My Story
    I’m just jumping right in and putting it out there. This is a raw, real, and incredibly personal episode about mental health, specifically the darkest moment of my adult life that was the start of the path that I’m on now.
    We recognize ourselves in others' stories, and I’m realizing that If I don’t share my story someone out there may not realize that they are not alone in their journey.
    Here some things that I share in today’s episode:
    In massage school I was told “This journey will change your life”, they weren’t kidding!
    How our schedules impact our stress levels
    Our stories around touch
    The two major hurdles I faced when it came to advocating for my treatment
    I also share the thought that kept me going throughout the hard parts of my journey.

  • What’s Life without a little celebration?
    I’m asking the important questions on my first episode: What is the last thing you’ve celebrated? When was the last time you celebrated something you did for yourself?
    I believe that everything we celebrate is something that changes us, so why don’t we celebrate the small things, the everyday moments, the steps that move us forward on our journey? Listen in because there’s a lot I want to share on this topic!
