Girl, You Are Going Crazy!

Self-care, self-care, self-care!!! Why is everyone always talking about it? How can you even fit one more thing in an already busy schedule, Aaaaaggghhhh!!!!!!!!

Listen, take a deep breath (yes, literally in your nose and out your mouth). Place your hand over your heart and breathe. It’s ok. I get it. Despite how you feel – you can do it!

Take a moment and think about all the AMAZING things you have already done – taking care of kids, dinner every night, leading a team at work, organizing meetings, planning a PTO fundraiser, or nailing a million-dollar account. YOU. ARE. A. BOSS…should I say more?

You can learn how to prioritize self-care if it means a more fulfilled life, right?

Self-care is simply prioritizing you – all of you.
