This episode is sponsored by Better Help. By now you probably have all of your gifts kind of squared away for others although maybe you're still doing a little bit of last minute shopping but

I'm wondering if you have picked out a gift for yourself. I know it sounds kind of funny but I personally

think one of the best gifts I give myself is therapy every week and the reason that I

feel like it is a gift is although sometimes it's hard and you're working through stuff,

it's like a little bit of time that I'm carving out to just work through kind of the tough things in my life, to talk through decisions that I'm trying to make,

tough moments that I experience, like just it feels like this way that I can really

care for myself and to kind of just get some clarity on what's happening in my life.

And I really do feel like that's a little gift that I can give myself, especially when things are just so

busy having that little bit of time every week I think is just so special. So if you are thinking

about giving yourself the gift of therapy, why not give better help a try? It is entirely online, it's convenient, it's flexible, it's suited to your

schedule. You guys know I do my sessions during the kid's nap time. All you do is just fill out a brief

questionnaire and get matched with a licensed therapist, but you can switch any time.

So in the season of giving, give yourself what you need with better help.
