During my recent retreat experience, I realized the immense value of self-care for our mental and creative well-being. Join me in this episode as I open up about my retreat reflections and discuss the importance of self-care with some of my fellow retreat participants. Together, we explore the significance of putting on our own oxygen mask before helping others, especially when it comes to parenthood. Having a supportive partner can make all the difference in creating an environment that nurtures self-care and self-investment. We also delve into the challenges of disconnecting from the outside world to truly relax and refocus our energy on personal growth and reconnecting with our creative side. Finally, we discuss the idea of productivity during retreats, emphasizing the importance of silence and allowing our minds the space to process emotions and thoughts. Trusting the process and not trying to control it can lead to more creative solutions and ideas emerging naturally. So, don't miss this insightful and inspiring episode as we share our experiences and thoughts on the power of self-care, retreats, and embracing our own unique paths. Join us on this journey of self-discovery and self-love.
