Hi my loves 🦋 Welcome back to The Self Indulgent Podcast and happy 2025! In this first episode of the year, we’re reflecting on the lessons 2024 brought and the intentions we’re setting for the year ahead. I’m diving into what it means to embrace change with self-compassion, the importance of mindfulness, and why constant self-improvement can sometimes feel exhausting.
We’ll talk about the power of play, building a strong foundation in your 20s, and balancing self-discovery with simply enjoying life. If you’ve been feeling stuck in "you vs. you" battles or struggling to find joy in the midst of self-development, this episode is for you. ✨ Let’s start the year with intention, curiosity, and a little more playfulness. 💖
