In this day and age of endless to-do lists, it has become more important than ever to put yourself on the priority list.  With stress, anxiety, and depression on the rise, we all need to take a step back and value the importance of self-care.

Join Joel and Tammy on this important discussion about self-care;  what it is, what kinds of things count as self-care and how can we incorporate more of it. 

If you are a people pleaser, like Tammy, then this is not an easy task.  Listen as she shares some of the ways that she prioritizes herself.

We are all worthy of caring for ourselves first so that we can better care for others.
