When you get stressed and overwhelmed it's a huge sign to pause. Press the pause button on whatever it is you're doing otherwise you end up pushing through and forcing it. I'm the queen of pushing through stress, pain, distraction, sickness, etc. You name it and you'll rarely know what's actually unfolding in my life [...]
Are you a priority in your own life? Do you come first? This is important so take a second and reflect. Today I was deliberate about putting my needs first. I made sure to do what I needed and give myself what I needed when I needed it. I only did the work that felt [...]
