About this episode
In a high-demand lifestyle, what does it really look like, functionally, to prioritize ourselves? Join today’s conversation with Meg and me as we explore personal expectations and narratives based on what season of life we’re in. What’s the cost of prioritizing yourself? Where do shame, fear, and blame play a role in putting yourself first? We get told we can’t pour from an empty cup, but it’s hard to wade through the reasons we don’t prioritize ourselves. This episode gets the conversation started.
