What does it really mean to hold space for yourself? Hosts Raj Savalia and Alexandra Kozar unpack the idea of self-compassion and the importance of making time to check in with your needs, especially in a world that rarely slows down. It’s not just about rest and routines. It’s about recognizing when you're being pulled in every direction and choosing, instead, to rise above the noise and tune in to what your mind and body truly need.

As Alex shares, “It’s giving yourself permission to care about yourself and make sure that you’re OK. That has to be your first priority.” Whether that means starting a fitness routine, reevaluating your relationship with rest, or letting go of perfectionism, this episode offers relatable strategies for building sustainable habits that keep you grounded and present. Raj adds, “If your roots aren’t strong, it’s hard to support the growth of others.” From lists and planners to evening walks and quiet routines, Raj and Alex explore how grounding yourself can help you lift off in other areas of life.

Tune in next week as we how we're "defying gravity one step at a time."
