DAFFY - Made By Real Women in Conversation

1/10/2020

DAFFY stands for “Do A Favor For Yourself.” 

This powerful, actionable phrase manifested from real words by real women.
My name is Chelsea Harris, Co-Founder of DAFFY, and I officially started the DAFFY creation process in 2018. which involved research gathered from surveys, interviews and focus groups of anonymous women around the topic of self-care.

And in this journey of research, were conversations filled with vulnerability, emotions, values & expressions I couldn’t ignore.

When certain words were passed around in conversation, I was plugged into their rawness, dialed into their vowels & charged by their diction -  They were all familiar tunes humming inside me. 

Because, what these women were feeling, I felt and was feeling too.

DAFFY is here because what women said to me which I’m sharing with you right here
[The responses are all anonymous]:

“When you wear a lot of hats you have to constantly make sure you aren’t dropping the ball. I work hard to keep up a strict workflow despite the struggles of raising a family and managing my own business.”

“As a female trying to balance work and life, I experience anxiety on a daily basis, and it has become a pretty consistent companion in the time I spend with my work. It comes as a direct result of the pressure to always be put together and maintain a flawless personal presence.”
“I work from home while also being a stay-at-home mom, so I get anxiety that I’ll have enough quiet time every day to get my hours in. On rough days, I stress over not getting much sleep because I have to work late and get up early to do so.”
​

“Coming together is so important and makes us feel so much better whether you’re struggling or thriving!"
Here’s what real women said via HuffPost regarding self-care below:
Self-care is... ‘not attending some extravagant spa day with the girls, but rather being able to identify when I need to slow down and perhaps cancel that spa day.’ - Katie McCartney

​“When self-care becomes a competitive and performative ritual on social media, it defeats its purpose... Self-care isn’t glamorous. It’s the everyday work you do for yourself to make you a little bit happier and healthy..If I had a self-care Instagram account, it probably wouldn’t be very popular ― there are only so many creative ways to take pictures of a water bottle or broccoli ― but self-care isn’t for other people, it’s just for you.” - Emily Bilek

Self-care is... ‘typically more difficult and less glamorous than treating yourself.’ - Emily Bilek

DAFFY is a way of managing our inner-wellness while we face life’s external unknown & uncontrollable circumstances.  

It’s a beautiful, sustainable way of living that grounds & grows us every day.
It might not look pretty, but it's progress not perfection.
Our hope is that DAFFY can ground & grow you too.
