Ana Salido has some gems...
"It’s not just about bubble baths and massages," Real self-care requires deeper work: reconnecting with yourself, knowing your emotions, and building daily habits that sustain well-being. It's about small actions daily rather than waiting for rare, grand moments of self-care.
“If you lose your why, you lose your way.” (another gem) Whether it’s in relationships, parenting, or personal growth, understanding your purpose helps you stay on track during challenging times.
In this episode, I sit down with Ana Salido, a psychologist-turned-women’s empowerment coach, to explore the deeper meaning of self-care, setting boundaries, and owning your truth. Ana shares how she transitioned from psychology to coaching after noticing that traditional therapy wasn’t meeting women’s needs for connection and empowerment. We discuss how to start small, create meaningful self-care practices, and the power of communicating your needs without guilt or shame.
Ana’s practical advice—start your day by doing something small for yourself—will inspire anyone to take ownership of their well-being.
What We Cover:
- The difference between being nice and being kind
- How small daily self-care actions can change your life
- Why boundaries are essential—and how guilt often gets in the way
- The importance of reconnecting with yourself and knowing your “why”
- How honest conversations are built on emotional safety and vulnerability
- Ana’s advice for showing up fully in relationships, friendships, and family dynamics
