Rachel encourages listeners to embrace messiness as a form of self-care.

Rachel shares some great ways you can get your hands dirty, from cooking with your kids to finger painting or making some kind of art. Sometimes when you embrace the mess, your perfectionism fades away and you can just live in the moment. Tune in to begin.
