In this episode, Pooja Lakshmin shares her expertise on the power of self-care. As a mental health practitioner, Pooja knows where many of us tend to fall flat and steer ourselves toward burnout. Here, she’ll share tips for how to set meaningful boundaries at work, how to recognize what priorities really matter, and how to rise up and stay soft in a world that doesn’t lend itself to gentleness.
