Ever feel like self-care is just another thing on your to-do list, but you’re not even sure where to start? You’re not alone! In this episode of The Esthetician Hub, we’re looking deep into what it truly means to begin a self-care journey, how to make it yours, and why it doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

Joining me is an amazing guest, Laura Shriner—the creator behind the popular Instagram community @HotGirlHealthClub and The After Glow Podcast — as we share our own journeys and all the twists and turns that got us here. We get real about what self-care looks like on a personal level, how it’s evolved for us over the years, and the myths that almost threw us off track. Laura and I open up about the setbacks we’ve faced, the unexpected moments of healing, and the ways we learned to pick ourselves up and try again when our routines just weren’t clicking.

Whether you’re new to self-care or you’re trying to rebuild after a rough patch, this episode is filled with practical, approachable tips on where to start and what to do when things don’t go as planned. We also share some favorite books, apps, and tools that helped us along the way, so you can feel supported as you begin your own path.

Grab a cozy spot and tune in for a conversation that’s as real as it gets about healing, growth, and creating a self-care journey that feels like home. This episode is here to remind you that self-care isn’t one-size-fits-all—it’s all about you, where you are, and where you want to go.
