Do you ever feel guilty for taking time for yourself? If so, you’re not alone. Many women, especially those stuck in the fawn response, have been conditioned to believe that self-care is selfish. But what if that belief is actually keeping you exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from your true self?

In this episode, I break down:

  • Why women are taught that self-sacrifice equals goodness
  • How overgiving impacts your body, mind, and nervous system (with research-backed stats)
  • Insights from some of my favorite life coaches Brooke Castillo and Jody Moore on redefining selfishness
  • A three-step process to start prioritizing yourself without guilt

It’s time to let go of the fear of being selfish and start living a life where your needs matter too.

Listen now and take the first step toward guilt-free self-care.
