Title:  3 Benefits of Practicing Self-Care With A Friend


Friendship is a key coping mechanism for life’s tougher moments 💙


For this final episode in our series on self-compassion, we are wrapping it up with one of my all-time favorite ways to practice self-care…spending time with friends. While it may take discipline to reach out when we are struggling, that’s really the hardest part of the practice. Once we are around our people, we are naturally able to put down our heavy and come up for air.


Joining me in this conversation today is my very best friend, Tonya. Relax and be part of a conversation between friends as we discuss why friendship is our favorite act of self-care.
