So here's one of the things.
While I'm trying to be all boss and professional on this podcast, I've got like a yelping cat in the background.
So apologies to all your listeners.
But uh usually my self care will involve um helping and petting my cat, but not today.
Um so I think, you know, one of the things that I deal with in how do I kind of pick myself back up is I definitely have to take care of now of my body and my mind.
So therapy is a huge resource for me.
Um, you know, I box now, so I get out a lot of my aggression in a different form, which is really helpful.
And um, but you know, the other pieces is that I have to create a council of like my esteemed team, like people that I go to that
deeply understand my plate, share in the same space.
And that's really important for me to go to for support.
But you know, where I also have developed is I developed a group of people who don't know much about what I do.
And I go to them to actually do the celebrating.
Cause I find that sometimes if I go to a lot of other like media literacy people or consultants or
You know, social justice advocates, we end up complaining about the same things.
And that's great in a bonding moment and we can share about our frustration and advocacy.
But I often don't get some of the lift that I need in those spaces.
And so I've cultivated a couple of friendships where I can go to them and they're less familiar with my line of work.
And so when I tell them some of the things that I've tackled during the day.
I get a different point of view from them.
They kind of help me celebrate the smaller wins.
