Happy December, Awesomes! You know that we preach the message of practicing self-care year ‘round, but we think it’s especially important during the often chaotic season of the holidays. This week, Meg is joined by Kelly, and they have a list of seven kinds of self-care to practice to keep yourself healthy and sane during the weeks ahead. Plus, a very touching Awesome of the Week (followed by a sensory relief for the bathroom!).
