EP 221: Five Years!
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: Five years ago I published my first 100% Guilt-Free Self-Care episode. I promised myself I would release a season because I knew I had ten things about self-care I wanted to share with you. I had no idea what the show would grow into. 🤯 Over the five years, we have learned from so many authors I admire. We have seen how self-care impacts women in all kinds of industries and professions. Deep dives into Enneagram and Getting Good at Grief gave me a chance to collaborate with my pals and learn more about myself (and you) in the process. Self-care for the 9-5er came...

EP 219: Sharing Our Stuff and Adult Friendships with author Laura Tremaine
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: After I attended an author's panel last year I introduced myself to Laura Tremaine. It was a super nerdy moment for me because I love her books and podcasts. I love her storytelling. I am super intrigued by her. Our backgrounds are very different—she grew up in very conservative Oklahoma, and I grew up in the liberal San Francisco Bay Area. But she moved to Los Angeles in her 20s and has talked about how that has impacted her. Because I wanted to learn more about her, I asked her to be a guest on my podcast; she said yes! Then I made it weird. I didn’t reach out to...

EP 218: More Equity for Everyone with Fair Play author Eve Rodsky
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: For more than a decade, I have been talking to people about self-care. Some would say I am a self-care evangelist because it saved my life. It is the only thing that keeps us from being burnt out. It is the fuel for feeling good enough in your life to keep going in our desire to make the world a better place. “I don’t have enough time” is one of the most often expressed reasons why women aren’t doing the self-care that they need. They are too busy because of work, child raising, keeping up with the housework, and doing all the things for all the people in their lives....

EP 216: Telling Your Story Without You Being There with Calvina Nguyen
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: I’ve got moms on the brain. Yesterday was the 9th anniversary of my mom’s death and I am so bummed she isn’t here to see how well I am doing, how much my daughter is growing and how the world is changing for the better. She would 100% be my biggest cheerleader in my work. I even talked a lot about moms in this week’s podcast. I interviewed Calvina Nguyen of Your Brand Spark. Calvina was born in China and moved to the US when she was 9, which brought a whole new conversation around self-care and one immigrant family’s experience. In her professional life, Calvina runs...

EP 215: Redefining Media and Midlife with Jennifer Cooper
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: How are you this late winter transitioning into spring? This week in my Facebook group I asked what magazines people read when they were in their teens and early 20s. Turns out a lot of us read Seventeen. Lots of others read Sassy and Jane. Ms. Magazine, Bitch, Bust got some shoutouts and even the ever-nerdy Utne Reader. Those magazines helped us feel less alone. We could find out what other GenXers or Millennials across the country were doing, thinking, and feeling. We found parts of ourselves in those pages. I asked because in this week’s podcast, I interviewed Jen Cooper, the...

EP 214: Money Freedom with Maureen Paley
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Shote notes: In this week’s podcast, Maureen Paley of the Financial Autonomy for Women podcast and I got a chance to talk about all things money and self-care. Money is a touchy topic for a lot of women. Given our very recent history of being able to have credit in our own names, loans without a male co-signer, and the ability to purchase property to build generational wealth, it makes perfect sense that we struggle when it comes to money. This, coupled with the societal and cultural narratives about self-care being selfish, we’ve got a lot of things to talk about!

EP 212: Letting Go of Mom Guilt with JoAnn Crohn of No Guilt Mom
100% Guilt-Free Self-Care
Show notes: In this week’s podcast, I got a chance to interview Joann Crohn from No Guilt Mom.
info_outlineIt’s been a WEEK. Anxious feelings have been hanging around me as a response to all the uncertainty and lack of leadership.
I’ve been using all my tools to help me feel better:
- deeply listening to my intuition about my health
- sitting in the discomfort of disappointing people
- canceling nonessential in person plans
- Moving essential meetings to tech platforms I haven’t ever used before thus leaving me feel not confident
- making sure I have necessary medication to manage my health conditions
- going to bed early
- eating all the fruits and vegetables
- and of course washing my hands and trying to not touch my face. (Why is that so hard?!?)
- In other words, I am practicing the hard parts of self-care for me.
How are you feeling? Can I support you?
Please join us in the 100% Guilt-Free Self-Care Facebook group. I am going live with self-care and kid wrangling tips Monday-Friday at 12:30 Pacific time.
