In a world that glorifies hustle and productivity, when was the last time you gave yourself permission to pause? In this episode of The Happya Life Podcast, Clare Deacon dives deep into the true meaning of self-care, beyond the bubble baths and candles.

Whether you’re in survival mode, just trying to keep your head above water, or feeling ready to step into growth, this episode will help you redefine self-care to meet your needs. Clare shares practical tips for recognising burnout, grounding yourself, and replenishing your energy using her Happya Survival Kit framework,  a tool designed to recharge the four key batteries of your well-being: physical, emotional, mental, and social.
