Small things can make all the difference, and each person gets to decide for themselves what those little steps are that uplift our spirits and lighten our load. These little things are NOT the same for everyone! A simple thing, like having her hair washed and styled twice weekly, helps energize today’s guest and makes her feel that she can take on the world–and she doesn’t need to make excuses for it. Join us to hear my conversation with Heidi Smith.
Show Highlights:
How Heidi decided that having someone “do her hair” twice each week is a BIG deal for her mental health
Why we have to decide for ourselves how to spend our emotional energy, which is in limited supply
Why it is ridiculous that women put so much pressure on themselves to be presentable because of external motivation
Why our self-care routines should serve us and have a place in our functionality
