TW: Self harmWhy is self-love crucial for a fulfilling life? One answer lies in the transformative power of healthy living. Embracing self-love means nourishing our bodies, minds, and souls with the care they deserve. When we prioritize our well-being, engaging in regular exercise, consuming nutritious foods, and practicing mindfulness, we cultivate a profound connection with ourselves. Today on Almost Adulting, Violetta welcomes Pursuit of Wellness host and Bloom Nutrition founder Mari Llewellyn. Mari’s journey to self betterment started when she finally decided to heal her body and mind through consuming a healthy diet and the continuous pursuit of wellness. She also shares her episodes of self harm, dealing with shame, and why showing up for yourself is the best form of self love.
