Dealing with COVID-19 anxiety, Roo gets tested, and our biggest question: how long will this last? | Selfie Podcast Episode 120

March 18, 2020

Subscribe via Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | Google | IHeartRadio

In this episode, we move from our usual format to take a deeper dive into what’s happening with COVID-19 and how it’s affecting every aspect of our lives. If you’re worried, well, you’re not alone. We have an open and honest conversation about our fears of the future, one of us getting tested for COVID, and — for the sake of a moment of levity — apocalyptic grooming and the things that are keeping us sane.

Some stuff we currently can’t live without:

Suddenly Homeschooling?:

  • Masterclass (my kids are loving this, it’s $15 for the whole family — KH)
  • Khan Academy (math and grammar and it’s free — KH & RP)
  • Dominoes (not for the traditional game; let them spend hours making domino runs; plenty of math, creativity, and physics involved! — RP)
  • Clipboards (print out some worksheets and a writing prompt, stick it individual clipboards, and let them work through those at the kitchen table — RP)

Apocalyptic Self-care

  • Cuticle butter (removed my gel nail polish myself, DIY nail care here on out — RP)
  • Emery boards 
  • Weleda Skin Food (with all of us washing our hands extra extra, it keeps my hands from feeling like sandpaper — RP)
  • At-home hair dye (COVID won’t catch me with roots — KH)
  • You are the Beloved by Henri Nouwen (a balm to my soul in these trying times — RP)

CBD has many benefits, and we are big proponents. But not all CBD is created equal. Unlike other CBD brands, who offer just CBD, Hempfusion is CBD plus omegas plus terpenes plus other natural ingredients to help you feel 100%. HempFusion’s specific blend of natural ingredients help with stress, sleep, and energy, and it can be shipped anywhere in the US.  Use the promo code SELFIE for 20% off of your first order and free shipping at hempfusion.com.
