Episode 48–Relax and Unwind

As working women, we all live such busy lives, and it can be hard to find time to unwind and relax.

So the other day I got on Facebook and asked my women friends what they do to relax and unwind. I got a great response and I want to take the next several minutes to share some of the comments from my Working Woman Radio Show sisters.

So, right now, I’m going to put on some soulful jazz music, and if you’re able to, I want you to go ahead and kick off those shoes, get out of those tight clothes, get yourself a cup of tea or a glass of wine, and find a comfortable place and put up your feet. This will be our time to relax, release, and relate.
