When was the last time you took a break for yourself?
Let’s face it… the reality is that women often struggle to prioritize self-care in their busy lives.
That’s why I invited mind-body alignment expert Dr. Melissa Sonners to the podcast to explore simple habit shifts that let us learn to prioritize ourselves with confidence.
We’ll discuss simple, accessible, and low-effort ways to reclaim your energy and feel more connected to yourself.
You can expect to learn about:
- What goes on in the brain when we focus on self-care
- The importance of consistency with even the smallest habits
- Finding peace, joy, and connection amidst the chaos of life
Tune in as we uncover the missing piece to a self-care system that actually works!

QUOTES
“That's how we give our brain these incredible breaks that– especially for a woman experiencing the fluctuations of perimenopause– is so key for turning that chaos to clarity.”
“When we can become empowered with understanding ourselves and work in alignment– work with our body, our brain, our hormones, instead of pushing against them, it makes such a difference.”
“These are such subtle shifts that someone could even overlook them. And these are the things in two weeks that you look back and you're like, ‘Oh wow, that does make an impact!’.”
