Here’s the truth: most of what we call self-care isn’t care at all - it’s self-maintenance. And while maintenance matters (yes, get your sleep, eat well, do the laundry), it’s not the same thing as the practices that actually bring you back to life.In this episode, I’m breaking down the real difference between self-care and self-maintenance, and why it matters more than you think. We’ll talk about:Why those “self-care lists” on social media can leave you feeling inadequate (and what real self-care looks like instead)The flip side - when you’re great at intuitive care but neglect the basics that keep you healthy and groundedHow to tell the difference between the two in your own lifeFour steps to find a better balance, so you feel both steady and aliveHere's the kicker...You’re probably not actually bad at self-care - you’ve just been taught to confuse it with maintenance. Once you know the difference, you can give yourself permission to stop just getting by and start truly caring for yourself.♥ Your Parent Coach, Brittney For free resources, online courses, or to join the mailing list, please visit theparentinglab.orgFollow on Instagram @theparentinglabpodcastEmail Brittney: [email protected]
