Joy and Self-care in the Era of Chaos with Therapist Daniela Sarmina

We talk to our friend and therapist Daniela Sarmina and ask her to share with us some helpful resources and tips on how we can cope with the chaos that's been around us since the election. Daniela, or Dani as we like to call her, is a licensed therapist, creative, and student of life. Born in Mexico City and raised in the San Joaquin Valley, she draws from her lived experience to help others uncover and honor their own strength and wisdom. A self-proclaimed goofball, with a BA in theater, she incorporates elements of play, joy, compassion and science to help others manage life stressors and achieve their goals. Dani tells us about her journey into becoming a therapist and gives us practical tips to help us practice self care during these challenging times. Plus, on this Tamarindo Podcast exclusive, she launches the Wellness Playground where she’ll be sharing her expertise through her private practice.
