166: When Me Now Becomes Now What? A Loving Tribute

166: When Me Now Becomes Now What? A Loving Tribute

Author: Lorrie Mickelson, Habits & Self Care August 23, 2025 Duration: 12:42

Me now.


What does it mean to you?


For some, it's empowering: A good reminder that your needs matter, too.


To others, it's a bold (sometimes selfish) notion.


To me, it's always been a radical act of self love and self care.


But, recently, I've come to see "me now" in a whole new light.


My concept, description, and feelings around "me now" has expanded.


It now includes "me now" years, "me now" days, weeks, and even moments.


Today, I'm going to share with you how a recent loss in my life and my family's life has caused this reframing of thoughts and brought forth some important lessons.


Lessons that I want to lovingly share with you in the hopes that they can help ease a similar situation you may find yourself in.


Because, even in the most difficult times, "me now" can still exist — just in smaller, gentler ways.


Love,

Lorrie xoxox
