Ep 111: Teeing Up after an Empty Nest w/ Ketki Mathuria
Om denne podcast
Welcome to the Essential Self-Care podcast where we talk about all things self-care for those of us who are, let’s face it, too busy for self-care. It’s time to bring that same compassion that you offer to everyone else in your life, to yourself as well. In this podcast you’ll hear real life stories of how self-care transformed people’s lives as they were going through life’s storms. You’ll learn practical, actionable tools to begin the self-care journey yourself as well, because like I always say, small changes make a large impact. Listen while driving or “on the run” to feel confident, energized, resilient, and radiant once again.
