Self Care Club: Wellness, road tested

Today we are tackling the taboo subject of body hair. Let's be real—body hair is one of those things that can bring up all sorts of feelings. For some it's a mild annoyance. For others, it's a deep source of shame. And for many, it's something we've spent years trying to manage, remove, hide, or completely erase. But here's the thing: body hair isn't a problem to fix. It's just… body hair. So why is it such a loaded topic? We'll be exploring the personal and cultural baggage around body hair, how our attitudes have changed and what it means to reclaim our bodies.  Thank you so much to our expert guest today Laura Schubert https://furyou.com/products/fur-oil?srsltid=AfmBOoq0wxMtPNyu77I25erwNwJ87xJo1MGMY26fXuSFV6IXu7zBy2J0 Get 10% off Daily30+ today.

In this episode, we're challenging rise and grind culture and the myth of "non-stop productivity" by exploring the impact of toxic motivation on our mental health, relationships, and self-worth. We dive into the pressure to constantly hustle and level up, questioning whether the pursuit of success is really worth sacrificing our well-being. Are we truly doing better, or are we just exhausted? We'll examine the harmful effects of the "do more, be more" narrative that's often perpetuated on social media, in the workplace, and in our inboxes. Is the hustle helping us thrive, or just pushing us toward burnout? If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the need to always be improving, this episode is for you. We'll discuss how to find a healthier, more sustainable approach to motivation—one that doesn't leave us drained, disconnected, or disillusioned. Tune in for practical insights on how to set boundaries, embrace rest, and redefine success on your own terms. If this resonates with you, share it with a friend who might need to hear it too! In this episode we discuss: The myth of "non-stop productivity" The dangers of toxic motivation and comparison culture How hustle culture impacts mental health and well-being Finding a sustainable approach to motivation Redefining success without burnout Go to ZOE.com to find out what ZOE Membership could do for you.

What do you want? A little question that can cause a lot of anxiety. But, it's probably one of the most important things we can ask ourselves.  Christmas is a time when many women are overwhelmed, overburdened and exhausted. The mental and physical load of carrying everything can be huge. We become so bogged down in getting the to-do list done, there isn't a moment to consider your own desires. So today is that moment.  In this episode they discuss: Why it's important to know what it is you want. How to start feeling that you deserve what you want How asking and not getting leaves you no worse off than you already are.

This week Lauren & Nicole are going on a silent retreat …Shhhhhhhh! Silent retreats are immersive experiences where participants engage in prolonged periods of silence. They are designed to promote introspection, mindfulness, and a deeper connection with oneself, often incorporating practices like mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and nature walks. The absence of verbal communication allows people to detach from the distractions of daily life, creating a greater sense of peace and clarity. To help us this week we enlisted Jo Kaye who is a Mindfulness Coach and Trainer. She hosted the retreat and joins us on the show to unpack the experience with us.  In this episode they discuss: Why we are so uncomfortable without distractions What happens when we tune into ourselves The power of slowing down How mindfulness supports our wellbeing.  If you liked this episode and want to be part of the club, come follow us on all our socials:  To Listen To Our Brand New Podcast 40ISH - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/40ish/id1757876983 To order our book “HAVE YOU TRIED THIS?” click here  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Have-You-Tried-This-Only/dp/1801293139/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1O7EA4ZF1O5CS&keywords=have+you+tried+this&qid=1699449028&sprefix=have+you+tried+%2Caps%2C125&sr=8-2 For Our Exclusive Merch - https://self-care-club.myspreadshop.co.uk/ Join Our Private Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1115099072702743/?ref=share_group_link Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/selfcareclubpod/ YouTube https://youtube.com/c/SelfCareClub TikTok https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMLnXyS1S/ Email hello@theselfcareclub.co.uk  Website www.theselfcareclub.co.uk Studio production by @launchpodstudios Music by purpleplanet.com   To get in touch with Jo Kaye Website: https://www.thebreatheacademy.co.uk Weekly email subscription: https://thebreatheacademy.us15.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=67c59f83a13494ff6e08aefad&id=8272f82ad7 Purpose People (private mental health OT in the community): https://www.purposepeopleltd.com FB and Insta: @thebreatheacademy To celebrate LYMA winning Vogue's ‘Best Laser Device' of 2024, for a very limited time only, we are giving you first access to this exclusive private sale.
