After stressful and traumatic events such as divorce, self care is a must! However, it can be challenging to take the time and the energy to be kind to ourselves. In this episode, Ellie Herringshaw dialogues with returning guest, Mel Noel about self care, self compassion and identity. Contrary to what we might believe, self care is not selfish. “We cannot give out of an empty cup.” Self care simply all boils down to self awareness, hearing the voice of God for what we actually need, and setting boundaries for ourselves and those around us.

“Advocate For Yourself” Song by Daniel Schultz-Jackson // https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha67nrSo_F8

1 Peter 2:9 (NLT) – But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.

John 10:10 (ESV) – The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

Psalm 37:5 – Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.
