Self-Connection is the Essence of Self-Care with Amanda de la Madriz

What counts as self-care? What is considered enough? These are some of the conversations that are happening online when it comes to moms learning to care for themselves. This week, life coach for moms Amanda de la Madriz is back on the podcast as we tackle our own complex thoughts on the issue of self-care in motherhood - and she boils it all down to understanding self-care as self-connection.

In this episode, Amanda and I talk about:

• Current conversations happening about self-care on social media
• The intention behind self-care
• Why we can't clearly define what is "enough" self-care
• Eliminating shame from the conversation
• How self-connection can be viewed as the essence of self-care
