Counsellor’s Corner: Self-Care or Selfish?

We live in a world where we’re constantly told to remember to look after our own wellbeing and to find a way to balance self-care with our work, family, and personal responsibilities. It’s for a good reason because you can’t pour from an empty cup. But what if filling your own cup means emptying out someone else’s? On this episode of Counsellor’s Corner, to help us navigate whether self-care can become selfish, we’re joined by licensed and registered counsellor, Anujah Pulanthiran.
