Summary

A solo, personal episode with Mary where she shares her reasons for going to therapy. Unfortunately, there is a big stigma around getting mental health support unless there's something "wrong" with you. Mary talks about why she was afraid to start therapy in the first place and what made her finally commit to it for the past 2 months. Getting support for your mental health shouldn't be something that's shameful- it shoud be a natural part of preventative mental health! Like taking your vitamins, eating veggies, and getting enough sleep- things we do to support our health BEFORE we are sick. Thank you for listening as Mary shares some really personal things! Links mentioned: betterhelp.com/mcot for 2 weeks free therapy

0:00.0	Welcome to Tea Time with Mary. I'm your host, Mary Jolkovsky. I'm a former bikini
0:12.0	fitness model turned self-love advocate. And this is the podcast that will inspire you to love
0:18.5	yourself.
0:26.1	Hey friends, before we begin, I just wanted to let you know that this podcast episode is sponsored by my favorite books. Not literally, but I did create a book list for you with all
0:33.3	of my favorite books for self-love and body image and self-confidence and just overall self-healing and
0:40.7	growth. I am a huge personal growth person and to be honest with you, a lot of the things that I talk
0:46.9	about come from the books that I've read. I'm a big reader and I always tell my little sister,

1:02.3	to create a book list for you with my top 25 favorite books. And I actually add to this list. So there's
1:09.1	probably going to be more than 25 books on it. But I have narrowed it down to top 25 books that you need to read to start the
1:16.0	self-love journey. I'm not saying you have to read all the books right now, but you should have
1:20.2	this list handy dandy for when you're getting a book on Amazon or shopping in your
1:25.0	audible or whatever. So I've created this book list and you can get it at
1:29.3	Maryscup of tea.com slash books. And I will also put it in the show notes. And let me know how you
1:36.4	like these recommendations by screenshoting what you're reading and tagging me in your Instagram
1:41.5	stories. I always love seeing you use my recommendations. It just
1:44.9	makes my whole day because we're like a little community. So anyways, marriescup of tea.com
1:49.8	slash books. Go get it. Hi, everyone. Welcome to another episode of Mary's Cup of Tea, the
1:57.6	podcast. I haven't recorded a solo episode in a couple of weeks. So I am really
2:02.6	excited to do a like solo personal update episode. And I was thinking about what's been a big
2:09.9	part of my life lately. And the one word, the one thing that stuck out to me is therapy.
