    EP. 153 - The Power of Showing Up: Community Care in Tough Times Jan 21, 2025
    Show notes

    In this week's episode, Barb and Michelle reflect on the devastating California wildfires, highlighting the deep pain and loss so many are experiencing right now. In moments like these, the strength of our communities and the care we offer one another becomes not just important but essential. Nakita Valerie’s words ring especially true: “Shouting ‘self-care’ at people who actually need ‘community care’ is how we fail people.”

    They explore the transformative power of community care, especially during difficult times. While self-care has its place, it often overlooks our intrinsic need for connection. We are not meant to navigate life’s challenges in isolation.

    Tune in to today’s episode to hear how you can practice community care and be a part of making the world a better place.

    Here are some key takeaways:

    • Community care is as important as self-care. We thrive when we support one another. It’s the strength of our communities that helps us through tough times.
    • Take small steps. You don’t need to fix everything. Small, consistent acts—like offering kindness, support, or a donation—make a big difference.
    • Pause the media and take action. Too much news can be overwhelming. Step back from the headlines and focus on how you can actively help your community.
    • Ask yourself: What is needed from me? Consider how your unique skills or resources can offer support. Whether through actions, listening, or kindness, showing up matters.

    Show notes

    Happy New Year!


    This week on Barb Knows Best, Barb and Michelle dive into the transformative practice of intention setting.

    In today’s episode, they explore why resolutions often fall short and how embracing the new year with intention can lead to meaningful, lasting change. They’ll share practical tips and insights to help you set powerful intentions, so you can step into the year ahead with confidence and ease.
