If you're a retreat leader, you're probably the worst self-care offender you know.
You build entire wellness experiences around other people...the breathwork, the nature walks, the farm-to-table dinners and then you go home feeling like a wrung-out towel. In this episode, Nick breaks down the 8 Jars of Self-Care, a simple framework he built when his own well ran dry.
In this quick listen, you'll learn how to check eight key areas of your life in five minutes a day, why being surrounded by clients isn't the same as being filled by your tribe, and how to bring this tool to your retreats so your guests can see their own transformation in their own hand.
The depleted leader teaching wellness is the oldest joke in the industry. Don't be the punchline. Fill your jars first, then pour!
