Hey everybody! Welcome to Big Sister Chats, the podcast where we dive into all things mental health, physical well-being, and cultivating a positive mindset. ✨

Get comfortable or pretend that we’re on a phone call like siblings who talk about life experiences. This is how I want this podcast to feel like - a place where you can share your worries and I can offer my advice and hopefully make you feel a bit better. 💕

Whether it’s about growing in life or tackling everyday challenges, I’ve got you covered. 💪

In this episode, we are talking about self care. 🤍

"Go take a bubble bath and you’ll feel fine." Yeah, babes, that’s not how it works, sadly.

Self-Care. The word is all over social media. So I wondered: Is it just a trend? Just a vibe or a style that some people have? Is it just a fancy word, like we call regular walks “hot girl walks” now?

But I realized it’s not. Or it shouldn’t be. While it all seems so perfect on Instagram and Co, self care isn’t just putting cucumbers on your eyes, living a minimalist lifestyle and standing up at 5 in the morning. 👑

Growing up with three brothers, I always wished I had another woman to turn to for advice. If you’ve ever felt the same way, you’re in the right place. 💅

In this episode we´ll touch on:

• What is self-care, really?
• How do I practice self-care without feeling guilty?
• Living Life vs. The Life on Social Media

Redefine Self-Care as a Daily Essential, Not a Luxury

Self-care isn’t just about treating yourself; it's about taking care of your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. It can be as simple as setting boundaries, getting enough sleep, or saying no to things that drain you.

Recap & Key Take-Aways

So, let’s recap what we’ve learned today:

Redefine Self-Care: It's not just about an aesthetic; it's taking care of your overall well-being.

Incorporate Self-Care into Daily Life: Small, consistent practices like taking breaks, breathing exercises, or setting boundaries can have a big impact.

Self-Care is Personal: Your routine should be tailored to what genuinely recharges you; it's okay if it doesn't look like everyone else's.

Consistency Over Perfection: Self-care is about growth, not perfection.

There are so many forms of Self-Care: find what works best for you.

Self-Care isn’t just a Trend: While self-care is popular, it’s more than a trend—it's a lifelong practice essential for managing stress and maintaining balance in a fast-paced world.

In this episode, we are talking about how to use your time to do something fun after work or uni so your evenings are not wasted. 🤍

It can be so exhausting to try and find something to do after a long day and we tend to just lay around, wasting the free time we have to wait around for the next day. Not anymore! 👑

Here are my notes on this episode:

We all only have 24 hours in a day but somehow some people seem to achieve more than others. Most of us do have some time we could spend

First, let’s do an audit and check just how much time we are spending on our phones. You can check your settings for your screen time.

⇒ On which apps do you want to cut back?

⇒ What “doesn’t count” like Spotify or where can it even be useful like Duolingo?

⇒ When do you use your phone when you could be doing something more productive or fun?

Recap & Key Take-Aways

• Do an audit
• Greyscale
• Work Mode: No messages between 7-16
• one sec app
• Have a dedicated place away from your work place / leave it at home
• max. Screen Time (for certain apps)
• MINDSET SHIFT: Don´t delete the app (you´ll re-download), make a new account and suddenly the algorithm isn´t fun anymore and you won´t be so tempted + all your drafts won´t be gone
• Planning: What are you gonna do instead of being on your phone? F.e. set the intention to write a chapter and THEN you can go on your phone.
