February doldrums can be real. I am currently staring at snow that is 3+ weeks old out my window (not so attractive at this point!) and we’re still weeks from the flowers popping up.
In today’s episode of Best of Both Worlds, Sarah and I talk about ideas for getting out of a funk. From focusing on your golden hours, to giving yourself treats, to indulging in 5-minute uplifters, there are lots of ways to make any moment feel better. While these strategies aren’t applicable for a real depressive episode, they can be helpful for ordinary low times.
In the Q&A we address a question of whether someone should believe people telling her she’ll feel very different about work after having a baby.
