I mean this with so much love BUT please can we stop treating our bodies like a never ending self improvement project!!!!!!

Today we're delving deep into the toxic side of self-help culture, the obsession with "optimisation," and why the daily habits you think you need to consume are actually making you miserable.

I genuinely think it's time to stop consuming content that is obsessed with the performance of greatness and start just... living however you want to.

A quiet life without self improvement podcasts or self help books is STILL a valid, successful and happy life despite what your algorithm tells you.

Enjoy everyone and let me know what you think in the comments below :)
