Tune in to discover how to build resilience, protect your energy, and stay present for both yourself and your clients.

Topics Covered In This Episode:

  • 5:06 – The surprising Instagram trick that protects your energy and focus

  • 8:47 – Why setting boundaries with social media is key to nervous system regulation
