You took the bath, went for the walk, said the prayer... and you still feel depleted. Sterling Jaquith explains why: when you trash-talk yourself all day, every bit of self-care pours into a cup full of holes. Plus the day a new friend saw her unfinished basement, and she chose not to poke a single hole.

  • Why being mean to yourself all day drains you emotionally and physically
  • Needle holes and pencil holes: the small digs vs. the big attacks on your vocation
