Self-care

from You Handled That Perfectly® · host You Handled That Perfectly® with Kelly Avalon + Carly Cruickshank

Welcome to Season 2 of You Handled That Perfectly! Kelly and Carly kick off the new season (and the new year) by redefining what self-care really looks like for moms—without adding more to your plate. In this episode, they break self-care into three approachable categories: personal, family, and professional, with a strong emphasis on micro habits that actually stick. What we cover: Why self-care doesn’t require a “new year, new you” mindset How saying no is sometimes the most powerful form of self-care Personal self-care beyond bubble baths (mental, physical, emotional, spiritual) Micro habits like breath resets, habit stacking, stretching, hydration, and sleep tweaks Reducing mental clutter by unsubscribing, unfollowing, and unplugging from your phone Nighttime routines, manifestation, and why what you think before bed matters Teaching kids confidence, calm, and emotional safety—especially at bedtime Reframing household “chores” as family self-care and shared responsibility How prioritizing yourself creates a calmer, more connected home This episode is a gentle reminder that self-care isn’t another thing to do—it’s a way to support yourself so you can show up with more patience, presence, and peace. ✨ You’re not behind. You’re not failing. And you’re allowed to take care of yourself.
