Episode 34: Mara Glatzel is Needy… and you are too.
“Self care is responsive, not prescriptive.”
-Mara Glatzel, The Everything Belongs Podcast
Today on the Everything Belongs Podcast, Madison is in conversation with Mara Glatzel, MSW. Mara is an intuitive coach, writer, and podcast host who helps humans radically reclaim their humanity by embracing their needs. Her superpower is saying what you need to hear when you need to hear it and she is here to help you believe in yourself as much as she believes in you. In this episode, Madison and Mara speak on being a needy, feeling human. They explore what it feels like to search for safety and our tendency to want to get our needs met outside of ourselves. As well as what the shift to full acceptance and self-responsibility of our needs can look like within our relationship to self, relationship with others, motherhood, business and your daily self care practices. This is a must-listen episode for anyone who's ever felt "too needy." Listen in…

What taking responsibility for your needs in your relationships and life can look like
How social #selfcare aesthetic may still be leaving you feeling like crap and what to begin focusing on if it is
Being patient with what you need and being with what is do-able
