Episode Synopsis

How letting go can be the ultimate act of looking after yourself.

When you’re too busy to take care of yourself, self-care HAS to be built into how you live. In this episode of Snackable Self-Care Soundbites, we’re flipping the script on “doing it all” and diving into why outsourcing can actually be self-care... and how to do it without spending a fortune.

You’ll learn the psychological-science behind why delegating lowers cortisol and boosts dopamine, how to rewire your stress response through letting go, and the tiny low-cost hacks that buy back your emotional bandwidth - from meal swaps and laundry drop-offs to mental-load outsourcing and emotional buddy systems.

Because sometimes, the most powerful act of self-care isn’t lighting a candle or running a bath — it’s saying:

“I can’t do it all — and that’s okay."
