In this episode, Amanda explains why self-care is self-preservation, sharing how quitting drinking in 2017 required a diligent stress-management toolkit and how letting her routines slide last year quickly impacted her wellbeing.
She outlines five completely free practices she uses as an alcohol-free woman—an intentional morning routine (including journaling, water before coffee, and EFT tapping), limiting screen time and nighttime stimulation, getting fresh air and sunshine breaks, daily walks and walk-and-talks for connection, and "fiction after five" to downshift from self-improvement content—plus a "second morning" midday reset with rest and guided meditation.
Amanda also shares five key investments: bodywork (massage, chiropractic, acupuncture and related tools), structured group fitness with strength training, a house cleaner, therapy and coaching, and delegation (including errands and admin), with a bonus example of outsourcing manicures to reduce fidgeting and stress.
