Episode 164: Self-Care For When Stuff Hits the Fan

When life unravels, emotions run wild, and the universe feels like it has you in a chokehold, self-care isn’t a luxury — it’s survival. In this episode, Autumn opens up about a deeply personal and emotional chapter involving her beloved dog, Lily, and how wellness becomes both lifeline and lighthouse when things get heavy fast.

This conversation is raw, human, unscripted, and rooted in what it really looks like to fall apart and still support yourself through it. Autumn shares what she’s learning in real time — how spiritual care, emotional grounding, rest, and slowing down allow us to cope with big uncertainty instead of being swallowed by it.

You’ll hear how the eight dimensions of wellness play into resilience, what it means to have a self-care “bank account,” and how we can rebuild when we’ve poured ourselves into everyone else for too long. Most of all, you’re invited to pause, breathe, and check in with your own needs — not someday, but today.
