Bad On Paper

This week, we're talking all about self care. And it's more than just face masks and baths! Sometimes self care is being your own parent and forcing yourself to do that thing you don't want to do. We're dishing on everything from our perfect self-care-day to self care on a budget to if you should feel guilty about taking time for yourself. In addition to everything self-care, we're also talking about our love languages, our summer travel plans, and our new summer uniforms!
