Self-care is not selfish and thanking yourself is essential for Gen X women. Licensed massage therapist Christie Going joins Kandas Rodarte to discuss why women struggle with self-gratitude, how to thank yourself daily, and practical self-care tips including their 30-day fitness challenge, hydration hacks, and why Snoop Dogg's "I want to thank myself" moment matters.

What You'll Learn:

Why self-care is not selfish (especially for Gen X women)
How to thank yourself daily without feeling awkward
Real results from a 30-day fitness challenge (including the struggles)
Why "I woke up above ground" is a powerful gratitude practice
How to make water taste better with natural electrolytes
The placebo effect and belief in healing (80% success rate)

Key Highlights:

Self-Care Is Not Selfish: Women are taught to care for everyone else first. Christie discusses why asking for and accepting help is hard for women, and how intimate wellness work helps women in this vulnerable aspect of their lives.

The 30-Day Fitness Challenge: Kandas and Christie share their honest experience completing a 30-day squats and sit-ups challenge. They discuss crying on day 1, missing days, modifying exercises, and why posting progress on Instagram kept them accountable. Both completed 30-35 reps by day 30.

Hydration Hacks: Natural electrolyte alternatives without artificial sweeteners including pink Himalayan salt rock in water, lemon juice, pinch of baking soda to lower pH, and a mineral water recipe with baking soda, brown sugar, salt and lime juice (tastes like coconut water).

Gratitude Practices That Work: Gratitude journaling (1-3 lines per day), "I woke up above ground" daily reminder, Mary Kay Ash's "I'm fantastic" response, and Snoop Dogg's "I want to thank myself" moment.
