There's something in that that I feel like is simple and also really powerful, and I really love the phrase that you use, and especially in the context of hiking, just thinking of all of the trips that I've been curious about taking but just have been so scared about that feat.
How do you balance chronic illness with a commitment to sustainability and self-care? Kirby, a passionate public health advocate from the San Francisco Bay Area, shares her story on Real Talk Radio with Nicole Antoinette.

Kirby’s insights into unglamorous self-care practices highlight the importance of setting boundaries and prioritizing mental well-being. This episode dives into themes of community, trauma, growth, and authentic living, providing valuable takeaways for anyone navigating similar paths.
