My guest on the show this week is Christy Tending. Christy is a self-care mentor, activist, writer, and mama who helps rebellious humans become fierce self-advocates and cultivate spirited (and spiritual) lives. She's been a social justice activist for nearly 20 years, and continues to engage with climate justice and Indigenous rights activism. She's also a mom of a one-year-old.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Christy's story of reaching complete flame-out as an activist, and how she recovered.
• How to make your self care really personalized, especially if the self-care practices you've been trying just don't feel that great.
• How to be an advocate for yourself.
• How to break out of the perfect mom vs. hot mess mom molds (and just be the imperfect and amazing mom that you already are).
• How to adjust when the self care that was working for you before suddenly isn't (this one is for you, new moms!)
