Episode 134: The Misconceptions and Myths of Self-Care

In this episode, Franchesca interviews Nicole Quintana-Wolf around the misconceptions and myths when it comes to self-care. Teachers are constantly being told “take care of yourself” by the administration yet frequently they’re not given the structures or supports in which to do that. That’s why they need to take self-care into their own hands! We debunk some of these myths (such as “just take a bubble bath if you’re stressed out”) and share with listeners the key to creating a shift when it comes to implementing self-care techniques that work: mindset. Specifically, how to cultivate a positive mindset through setting intentions, affirmations, and having a gratitude practice; also honing in on the most powerful self-care techniques, such as morning routine, movement, and mood-boosting foods.
Nicole is a  teacher with teaching experience, including in Florida, London UK, southside Chicago, and most recently in the Bronx, NYC.
