To The Women who juggle it all - happy mother's day!
Hello Reader,
Whether you’re a mom, celebrating a mom, or simply someone who pours into others daily—this is your invitation to slow down and check in with yourself.
Mother’s Day can be a beautiful time to reflect on the power of nurturing. And here’s the truth I remind my patients of every week:
You deserve to receive the same care you so freely give.
That might look like giving yourself permission to rest without guilt, saying “yes” to help when it's offered, carving out time for a solo walk, journaling over coffee, or simply savoring a few quiet moments of stillness.
True self-care is about meeting your own needs just as compassionately as you meet the needs of others.
And when it comes to nurturing yourself, it’s not just about the big things—it’s about the daily rituals, too. The biggest thing you will notice when dialing in the daily habits that nurture your body is the radiant glow in your skin.
Healthy, radiant skin is less about products—and more about self-care. Not the fluffy kind (though we love a good bath!), but the foundational kind of self-care that includes:
- Nourishing meals
- Clean, non-irritating skincare
- Hydration
- Setting boundaries
- Taking the time to rest
Your skin is a mirror of how well your body is supported. It reflects your gut, your stress, your hormone levels, your sleep—and yes, your self-confidence, too.
So whether this email finds you as a mom, celebrating a mom, or just needing a moment to breathe—I hope it’s a reminder that taking care of your body shouldn't be a mundane routine.
It’s a health practice.
A nervous system reset.
A five-minute promise to yourself.
Here are a few simple ways to support your well-being and skin:
- Swap harsh soaps for microbiome-friendly cleansers
- Add one skin-nourishing food to your plate today (think avocado, wild salmon, pumpkin seeds)
- Take 3 deep breaths while you moisturize—it matters more than you think
- Reduce exposure to heavy metals that dull your skin and improve hydration with properly filtered water
- Choose mineral-based, non-toxic skincare that feeds your glow, not fights it
