Episode 140. How to Explain Self-Care to Your Partner

It’s hard enough to find time to take care of yourself each day, isn’t it? And it gets even harder when you feel like you have to justify it to your partner. This can feel especially tricky if your care costs money.

In this episode, we’ll talk about three ways to have the self-care talk with your special someone. If you ever feel guilty taking care time, this one’s for you!

Listen up for these highlights to get more partner support and less skepticism:

[01:50] How to use your partner’s habits to support your healthy choices

[03:55] The “secret self-care sentence” that so many partners find irresistable

[04:42] The ‘me care’ reframe that helps partners totally get why taking care is so important

I’ve received email after email from moms saying how these communication skills have worked wonders for their relationships. I hope that one (or all!) of them helps you find the right words, too – and share why your care deserves time every single day.
