Take Care of Yourself

episode 20: Money Stories + Self-worth

This week Tara’s sharing two books she read, Girl, Wash your Face and I’m Judging You: The Do-Better Manual. We talked about how sometimes it’s comforting to read the same advice you already know (your body size does not determine your worth) but how refreshing it is to read something new (and practical) like Ajayi’s book.

Episode 18: May Book Club discussion - The Four Pillar plan

Sometimes you just have a week where you don’t like anything you read. This week we discuss what we don’t like: books that try to sell you a program (we’re looking at you “business coaches”) and novels with boy-crazy female protagonists. We also talk about reading with kids, the importance of fiction, and the Bechdel test.

Today we discuss the book we both use every day to journal, work through emotions, and feel the way we want to feel: Emotions and Essential Oils. We share ideas for how to use it for journaling prompts, to change your mood and to make better care of yourself.
