Be Well Sis: The Podcast Why Your Wellness Routine Isn’t Working (Yet)
You’re doing the skincare, taking your probiotics, checking the boxes-but still feeling off? You might be skipping the most important parts of self-care: safety, rest, connection, and stability.
In this episode, I sit down with Ericka Nicole—founder of Silken and host of Boss Babe Reset—to explore the five levels of the Self-Care Pyramid and why burnout often stems from neglecting the basics, not just doing too much.
We discuss:
- The 5 levels of the Self-Care Pyramid (based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs)
- Why so many of us feel unsafe—and how that affects our mental health
- The importance (and difficulty) of building community as an adult
- Real talk on burnout, financial insecurity, and finding joy anyway
This conversation is hilarious, honest, and full of wisdom for anyone navigating adulthood with big dreams and low energy.
