Real vs. Fake Treats: What Actually Fills You Up?

In this episode of Deepish, hosts Chelsey and Sammy unpack the idea of real vs. fake treats — the things we reach for to feel better that either truly nourish us or quietly drain us.

While Sammy battles pregnancy nausea and Chelsey reflects on her birthday indulgences, the duo explores how to identify real self-care versus temporary distractions. From scrolling and sugar to quiet time alone, they discuss how to choose treats that actually support your well-being and align with your goals.
