Do you ever have one of those days where you would just rather be in your bed? Or maybe you’ve been wearing the same comfy sweats for a few days in a row? I’m not talking depression here, that’s a serious mental illness and you should seek help if you need it. I’m talking about the funk.

In this episode, I’m sharing what it’s like for me when I get into a funk and things that help me to pull myself out of it. From getting a list of to-dos out of my head and onto paper to taking a shower to cleaning a space in my house, I’m giving you my best tips for fighting the funk, plus some great ideas that my lovely Instagram followers shared as well. I hope you find something here that resonates with you for the next time you need to pull yourself out of a funk too. 

In this episode, you’ll learn…

[01:12] How I recently got into a funk after being sick, and why being in a funk is the worst—but also very relatable

[05:39] What happens to me when I’m in a funk, and understanding the difference between being in a funk and depression

[09:17] How making a giant to-do list helps me to get everything out of my head and onto paper, and the importance of taking baby steps if you find it difficult to take action
