Achieving your goals, raising your standards, being more confident, being you, and killing it! These are just some of the themes you’ll hear in The Maarte Life Podcast. In this episode, join Carmela and Mirtle as they talk about how they practice self-care and find out how scuba diving can be more relaxing than you’d think. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• Self-care is not a one size fits all thing. We’re all individuals and need to practice our own self-care in our own ways. 
• When you slow things down it can give you perspective. You get time to think and without all that background noise you can actually hear yourself think and just be in that space. 
• Self-care isn’t about going to the extreme of being super happy, it’s about bringing you back to that neutral contented state. 
• Food therapy is a thing and you shouldn’t be afraid of it, just remember to do it in moderation. If chocolate makes you happy then you should have it every once and while. Comparing your body to people online is not a healthy thing to do or way of thinking. 
• Surrounding yourself with positive people can reflect back on you. Would you rather mirror positivity or negativity. 
• It’s okay to say no. If the thing you’re being asked or the person asking isn’t going to allow you to be you and raise you up, then you can say no and not feel like a bad person.

PODCAST DESCRIPTION

"Ma·ar·te (adj.): Artsy, Artful. Because settling for less was never an option.

Filipina models and business partners, Carmela and Mirtle catch up on all the things they can’t stop thinking about... good thing they got a podcast to tell it all! 

Grab your favourite sunglasses and tasty cocktails (Carmela is allergic to alcohol so she’ll settle with buko juice) and join these two Maarte Babes, every Thursday, as they sit down and chika on all things: Lifestyle & Leisure, Beauty at All Ages, Relationships, and Personal Development... and of course catch-up with their brilliant and inspiring guests who are just as Maarte as they are!

With every episode, The Maarte Life Podcast’s mission is to create a space where women (and gents) feel empowered and confident, and make you laugh - a lot. Carmela and Mirtle are committed to authenticity, honesty, and learning right alongside you.
