About this episode
Do you feel guilty every time you put yourself first? Like you're somehow being selfish when you say "no" to others to say "yes" to yourself?
It's time to reframe what being "selfish" really means. Just like putting on your own oxygen mask first in an airplane emergency (this will make more sense in the episode), taking care of yourself isn't optional – it's essential.
Discover how healthy boundaries and self-care actually make you more available to others as we Calm it Down in 3...2...1.
