Relationship with Self-Care (feat. Sara Jin Li)

In this episode of “The Relationship Type,” hosts Alex and Patty sit down with writer, playwright and filmmaker Sara Jin Li to dive deep into the topics of self-care and love, and what it means to move away from the capitalistic ideas of each. Sara has been exploring the myths of self-care and why we should instead turn to our communities for true healing. As modern life becomes increasingly intertwined with the demands of capitalism, we often find ourselves caught between the pursuit of self-care and love. This discussion will leave you with a sense of understanding in your quest for meaningful relationships and self-fulfillment within the confines of today's capitalist society. The ladies also talk about imposter syndrome—and how Sara simply does not subscribe to it—the pitfalls of online dating, and what it’s like to move across the country and leave friends and family behind.
