    From The Archives - Your Summer Self

    We are taking a break over the summer so please enjoy this episode from our archive. It’s the last episode before we take a break for summer and we’re going out in a haze of sunshine, rebellion, and possibly crisps for dinner. Because summer has a sneaky way of waking up a part of us that goes into hibernation the rest of the year;  the spontaneous one, the barefoot one, the one who remembers how to just be, instead of constantly doing. In this episode, we’re asking: What version of you emerges when the sun’s out and the pressure’s off? Is it your fun side? Your libido? Your ability to sit in a deckchair without feeling like you should be folding laundry? We’re talking summer selves, seasonal magic, and how to hang onto a little bit of that barefoot energy even when September rolls in.

    From The Archives - How to Have An Imperfect Summer

    We are taking a break over the summer so please enjoy this episode from our archives. There is so much pressure to have the “perfect” summer - a great body, a great wardrobe, making every day of the school holidays ‘magical’ and having a wonderful Instagram worthy perfect holiday. Today Lauren & Nicole are saying NO THANKS to all of it! In this episode the ladies talk about the myth of perfection and what self care you can put in place to have the realistic summer that you actually want and deserve using their S.N.A.C.K method - because everyone wants snacks, but nobody wants stress.  Email: hello@theselfcareclub.co.uk  Studio production by @launchpodstudios Music by purpleplanet.

    Self Care Club Is Evolving: Midlife, Menopause & What’s Coming Next

    Before the rumours start… no, Self Care Club isn’t ending! We’re just pressing pause for the summer. After nearly seven years of making the podcast we love, we’ve been having some honest conversations about where the show is now, where we’ve changed, and where we want to go next. Because the truth is we’re not the same women who started this podcast. The audience has changed, the wellness world has changed, and our conversations have changed too. Somewhere along the way, we found ourselves talking less about collagen and goat yoga, and much more about the things that actually shape our lives now. Hormones, confidence, ageing, relationships, careers, teenagers, marriage, the mental load, identity, ambition, reinvention and what the second half of life really looks like. And those are the conversations we’re most excited about. So we’re taking a summer break to rest, rethink and create a refreshed version of Self Care Club. Same friendship, same honesty, same laughs, but with a much bigger focus on midlife and the brilliant, messy, confusing stage of life we’re all navigating. Expect conversations about menopause, women’s health, confidence, friendship after 40, ageing, beauty, sex, identity, empty nests, ADHD in women, relationships, reinvention and everything else we’re all secretly wondering about. Because midlife deserves its own space. Women in their 40s and 50s are often talked about, but not always talked to. We want this show to feel like sitting down with friends who are asking the same questions you are honest, funny, thoughtful, and still very much us. While we’re away, we won’t disappear. We’ll still be around, sharing things on social media, and we’ll be bringing you episodes from the very beginning of Self Care Club so you can relive the journey with us; or discover it if you’re new. Thank you for listening, supporting us, and growing with us. This isn’t goodbye. It’s the start of the next chapter and we genuinely think it’s going to be our best one yet !

    Burnout Recovery: Why Rest Isn't Enough with Jo Hutton

    This week on Self Care Club, we welcome Jo Hutton, yoga teacher, writer, trainer and creator of Yoga for Tired People, one of the world's leading health and wellbeing Substacks. Despite spending years teaching wellbeing practices, Jo experienced severe burnout in 2022. In this powerful conversation, she shares what burnout really looked like behind the scenes, why knowing about self-care isn't the same as practising it, and what genuine recovery actually requires. Together, we explore burnout recovery, nervous system regulation, chronic exhaustion, the difference between rest and recovery, and why so many people still feel tired even after taking time off. Jo also explains how the deeper teachings of yoga helped her recover and why rest may be a skill most of us have never learned. If you're feeling constantly exhausted, overwhelmed, burnt out or stuck in survival mode, this episode offers a compassionate and evidence-informed perspective on recovery. Self Care Club is the podcast that cuts through wellness myths and explores what really works for health, wellbeing, burnout recovery and self-care. • Burnout recovery and healing• Nervous system regulation• Chronic stress and exhaustion• Why rest isn't always restorative• Self-care myths• The difference between stopping and recovering• Burnout warning signs• Yoga beyond the physical practice• Recovery after burnout• Managing overwhelm and stress• Sustainable wellbeing practices• Learning how to rest Follow Jo Hutton: @johuttonyoga Subscribe to Yoga for Tired People:https://happyyoga.substack.com/ Look out for Yoga for Tired People (Bloomsbury, Spring 2027) If you enjoyed this episode, please follow, rate and review the podcast.
