Welcome to Mary's Cup of Tea, the self-love podcast for women, though all self-lovers are welcome here.

I'm your host, Mary Jolkovsky. I'm an author, speaker, retreat leader, and all-around

self-love advocate. And this is the podcast that will inspire you to love yourself.

Hello, self-lover. Before we dive into today's podcast episode, I want to make

sure you know about my two books on self-love. If you're struggling with body image or self-acceptance,

then I highly recommend you check out my first book, The Gift of Self-Love. It's a comprehensive

workbook to help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn

to love who you are. Thousands of people have this book and the five-star reviews are so amazing.

They give me so much life, so I hope that this is something that can help you too. You can get it

wherever books are sold by searching for the gift of self-love or go to my website mary's cup of tea.com

slash book. After releasing the gift of self-love and reading all your positive feedback,

I realized that we really needed something to keep us going every single day. So not a deep-dive

workbook, but maybe like a micro dose of self-love in your daily life, which is why I wrote 100 days of

self-love. It's a guided journal with, you guessed it, 100 prompts that cover so many areas of life,

including body, identity, purpose, emotions, mindset, relationships, and more. So you can really

think of it as a metaphorical multivitamin, something to

keep you going, or as I like to say, growing on your self-love journey. You can get this journal

wherever books are sold as well by searching for 100 days of self-love or go to mary's cup of tea.com

slash journal. It's my mission to share all the self-love tea with you. So I hope that both my books and this

podcast can do just that.

What a month, huh? What a time to be a woman in this world. I'm personally turning to mantras to help get me through

this tough time and I hope that these five mantras I'm going to share with you today will help
