Ever felt overwhelmed by the idea of self-care? Swamped by the endless tips and tricks? This week, we take a step back and fundamentally rethink self-care. We underline that self-care isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, but a deeply personal journey that needs customization according to your unique needs, preferences, and circumstances. We dig deep into the various facets of self-care, from understanding that even chores can be a form of self-care, to the importance of integrating self-care practices into our daily routine for long-term benefits.But, that's not all. We also challenge the misconceptions that self-care is selfish and stressful. To help you navigate these feelings, we share some thought-provoking questions and affirmations to remind you that you are worthy of self-care, and that it's a gift you give not just to yourself, but to those around you as well. And for all you boundary warriors out there, we emphasize that setting boundaries is a vital aspect of self-care. We close by encouraging you to explore what a self-care practice might look like for you. Remember, you are capable and deserving of prioritizing yourself.

Join us for an intimate dialogue with the knowledgeable Holly Wade, MA, LCPC, whose wealth of experience from the mental health field and her active role in Maryland's Physician Health Program and Health Professionals Program makes her an authority in this space. We navigate through the shadowy corridors of substance use disorder stigmatization among healthcare professionals, an area that doesn't get nearly enough focus. Discover why it is essential for these individuals to have a secure and empathetic environment to lean on for help and how the fear of judgment can often be a hindrance. As we dive deeper, we shed light on the paradox of how medical professionals, despite having access to medication, can get ensnared in the clutches of addiction. Together with Holly, we probe into the normalization of substances in society, a factor that can blind people from recognizing their own addictions. We also discuss how the pandemic has altered coping mechanisms, leading to increased substance use. Gaining an understanding of the common misconceptions surrounding substance use disorders, we emphasize the need for compassion and patience to help those battling addiction.
