"Me Time" with Casey (@caseyandthebear) Who Knows?
-
- Saúde mental
On this episode, we are coming together to talk about being alone. Some people hate it, and others want nothing more than to have a little me time every day of the week. There’s a balance to be struck between company and solitude, but either way you dice it, there are important benefits to finding the joy in spending time with yourself.
Jessica begins with a fantastic topic breakdown, citing the major differences between alone time and being alone in an unhealthy way. She shares a few ways that indulging in me time can greatly improve your mental health and offers suggestions on a few ways you might try to spend some quality time with yourself.
In our conversation, we are joined by Casey, wildly creative and talented owner of Parkbound Buttons, often found online @caseyandthebear or in a theme park with friends, as well as very often on her own.
Casey is a person who greatly values her me time. Today she is sharing what makes that time so enjoyable for her, some of her favorite activities to do solo, and even a few things that make her nervous when she is adventuring on her own. She reminds us that while there is tremendous enjoyment to be had with a stroll through a target or going on vacation by yourself, it is not always easy to muster the courage to go it alone. She shares that even those who love to be alone still need their moments of someone to lean on, but leaves us assured that no matter what the challenge may be, there is still independence within you.
This episode proves that both time with others and time alone have their place, and one simply cannot and should not exist without the other.
