Welcome back to the Happy Place for the last time this season, yes you have made it to the tenth and final episode this season. Before Ben puts away their microphone, they have just enough time to bring you the whole reason for this podcast, and the ultimate way we can treat ourselves as imperfect perfect humans. “We should never negate the power of self-care because we can care for ourselves in so many ways that can really make our lives easier, and far more manageable.
