Everyday Wellness with Dr. Tina H. Boogren (formerly Self-Care for Educators)
Everyday Wellness with Dr. Tina H. Boogren is for educators, caregivers, mid-life women, and anyone carrying a lot. Each episode explores true, sustainable wellness through one essential question: How do I want to feel? From there, we focus on designing a life that actually supports that feeling, right now. This podcast isn’t about perfection or big overhauls. It’s about micro-choices, small wins, community, and the quiet courage of choosing yourself again and again. Through honest reflection, humor, practical tools, and weekly invitations, Tina helps listeners reclaim energy, clarity, and joy in real life. Grounded in gratitude, connection, and finding delight in the everyday, this is wellness for today, not someday.
